Leaderboard status network speed 0.7028 a problem or not?

[futr57]

Not sure if I understand this Leaderboard stat "0.7028 Mbts Network Speed." It seems like 0.7028 is too slow. Is the speed dependent on the amount of traffic. This is my first look at Leaderboard status page. Does Node_Network_Limited (1037) affect the network speed? Appreciate clarification.

Where is this leaderboard and how did you get access to it?

Speed doesn't matter so much as your node doesn't need to be accessed too many times and you can still help with broeadcasting data to the network. Also it might be that that is the speed that data is being treansmitted and not the potential (as it might just measure how quickly data is sent once requested rather than always checking as packets need to somewhere to be sent to and they won't just clog the network by sending random unnecessary packets.

This link is the address & lets you see what I'm looking at. I think I just wanted reassurance my site was okay. I had a SYN/ack attack from two IPs on my system.  I am new to bitcoin node. I am not sure how it's supposed to work when it works well. I think you are right.

I'm assuming bitnodes site is legitimate.

A lot of them seem lower than that on that.site. I'd go with the speedtest.net test instead as that will be more accurate as it's more intensive in a lower amount of time.

Thank you for taking the time to look. Good site here.
