I had the guys at callplus switch off interleaving on my line a few days back, as i wanted to test the performance of a web application with the lower latency. Tonight i came across the DNS lookup graph from the truenet measuring, you can see when the interleaving was switched off quite clearly:

EDIT: removed the truenet graph, replaced with an approximation showing my connnection....

well, reading the page i took a screenshow of, no. i've replaced with a DIY job instead :D

It wasnt showing IP addresses, or how much data etc, so i dont know if it would have mattered... but point (and action) taken.

Why not it's just a graph of his connections dns response time...

Interleaving off make a big difference, first thing I always getting changed when changing ISP as some of them default to having it on still.

Yes, interleaving going off can result in a huge drop.

It varies from network to network and from profile to profile, however generally interleaving in an On/Off scenario (Versus say the 5 different levels on some networks) is usually 32ms, which is roughly what your graph shows.

Interleaving off is certainly a nice luxury however in the case of many lines it is a requirement to address packet loss or Carrier-Loss or sync.
