    • 2022-08-16: average time to download is about 42 seconds which is about 16MB/s

• 2022-08-15 krowe: I had tcpdump running on each na-arc-{1..5} nodes watching for traffic from almaportal tcpdump dst almaportal.  Then I would run the following wget on cvpost-master.  The first execution would be shown by tcpdump on na-arc-1, the second execution on na-arc-2 and so forth.  This is because of the round-robin nature of the web proxy on almaportal and was a nice confirmation of that process.  However, each execution also downloaded at about 32KB/s (0.3Mb/s) after a minute or so of downloading, which is about 300 times slower than expected.  Using the test swarm (natest-arc-{1..3}) I can download the same file at about 10MB/s (100Mb/s). Also, I did not see any difference in performance across the five nodes which was also surprising given that one of the nodes runs the downloader container and the other four need to forward traffic to the one download container.

• 2022-08-15 krowe: I ran iperf tests from end to end and don't see any unexpected performance.
