Hello all,
I have just recently gotten a dedicated server from WorldStream (
http://worldstream.nl) specially for one of my sites that is serving to majority Euro visitors on the site.
However, I'm situated in Singapore hence my speed connected to the server is utterly lousy.
I had written in the WorldStream and my ISP Starhub from Singapore but my ISP seemed reluctant to help me solve this problem.

1 : We always do have 75% of our network capacity free. Even in Peak hours we do have at least 75% free. This will not be the problem.
2 : As far as i know is your webserver fast enough for your website, i don't think this will be the issue, you can check it out to have a look at your CPU usage.
3 : It's because of StarHub's transit provider which is choosing very odd route's to reach your server.
They have to change the route, we cannot do anything about it.

Based on the results we received, our engineers found that there are
no latency issue within StarHub Cable Vision's Network.
We would like to share with you that as with any network, surfing and
streaming speed may be affected by a number of factors. This is
especially when you are accessing a foreign website because the
Internet is a network of networks. These factors include:
1) Peak Hour Traffic Delays
- Content-hosting servers may be overloaded during peak hours, when
the number of concurrent connections exceeds the webserver's
capacity. This might result in delays in accessing data.
2) Content Provider's System Configuration and Bandwidth allocation
- Different content-hosting webservers can provide varying end-user
experiences. For instance, webservers with high-powered CPUs and
large amounts of memory would be better equipped to handle a high
demand for content as compared with less powerful webservers,
resulting in greater end-user access speeds. Similarly, end-user
access speeds may also be affected by the content providers'
bandwidth connection to the Internet. If this bandwidth connection
or the speed of the link connecting the webserver to the Internet
and/or to Singapore is insufficient, the end-user may experience slow
access speeds, even if the local Internet service provider such as
StarHub has allocated sufficient bandwidth for this connection.
3) External Routing Delays/Congestion
- Slow connection speeds are sometimes also due to overseas routing
delays/congestion. Unfortunately, such delays are usually beyond the
control of any local service providers including StarHub.

Anyone here can advise what should I do? Because my pages on my site are loading slow on at my location but blazing speed for the rest of the members residing in Euro or non-affected countries.
I need to work on the site for updates and stuff, hence the slow loading pages are getting on my nerves now... All kind help will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks!
