I turned this on for an ALB I have in us-east-1, and the performance for Global Accelerator is noticeably worse than using regular commercial Internet transit.

I turned this on for an ALB I have in us-east-1, and the performance for Global Accelerator is noticeably worse than using regular commercial Internet transit. Using the 8 standard endpoints from worldping, Amazon Global Accelerator has 44% slower latency on average, with the South Carolina endpoint being 172% slower and the New York endpoint being 96% slower. Four of the other worldping endpoints are neck and neck, neither faster nor slower.
