** UPDATE soon after posting this, connections are flying again, maybe it was just a fluke

Hello,

Are connections from AWS being throttled?

When downloading:
http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/allCountries.zip

AWS: 4-8 K/s
Elsewhere: 500-1100 K/s

Downloads from other sites on this AWS node are very fast.

If an IP is being throttled, is there a way to whitelist it? We have a process which checks for geonames updates 1x daily.

Thanks,
Evan Lowery
