I've had higher pings while trying to ssh from East Coast to West Coast. I'd wonder if those pings were to sites mostly hosted on the West Coast, because crossing the Pacific is mostly just travel time, and doesn't include 10-15 hops through various routers/ISPs.
- STRML 13y agoYeah, you're right - an East Coast EC2 instance is about 220ms, but it's a very stable 220. No problem using SSH through that, and you can use mosh if it really bothers you. It's really much more pleasant than I'd expected, being the other side of the world and all.
