Bet Placement

[mak]

The last few days I can see through transactions log and "live" that sometimes there is a big difference for a bet to be placed...eg usually for a i/r bet i get 1300-1400 ms...the problem is that for the last week i am getting something like 1450-1650 ms and my bots are straggling

probably is due to my vps provider (fasthosts) but i don't know how to address this problem to them, i am not that good to explain...i can't "speak" to them with technical terms and English is not my native language also

can someone point me out how to address this problem, and how i can prove it without telling them about BA, because i got an answer that it is probably my software problem already...

also, does anyone have a decent vps provider to suggest in Ireland?

thanks

First of all you should check the response times you get for price refreshes. What do are you getting? Because you are an international user the bet request is sent from UK Betfair to Malta after it reaches the UK so if it looks like the delay is there then it's nothing to do with your ISP. The price refresh does not go to Malta so it's a better indicator of the response times you are getting from Betfair.

I have become "master" to the response times lately
Response times are fine.I have always open the chart of res time and watching..

I know about the international users, but i can't explain why there is so much difference lately
