INITIAL

This evening iOS6 is launched. Previous experience suggests this will be a big spike in demand that will be more than the Olympics or the World Cup.

It is quite likely to cause some links to hit limits. We have systems designed to manage this sensibly, giving priority to small packets such as VoIP and DNS if any links are full.

UPDATE

Seems also an OS X 10.8.2 update as well, double whammy

UPDATE

So far, links are coping...

UPDATE

OS X upgrade is 365MB

UPDATE

WARNING! if you value usable maps, don't upgrade to iOS6. See http://revk.www.me.uk/2012/09/ios6-maps-are-crap.html

UPDATE

Now we are starting to see some high usage...

UPDATE

Looks mostly affecting 21CN at present.

UPDATE

From around 20:00 to 23:00 there was some congestion on 21CN lines due to the iOS and OSX upogrades last night.
