I've actually always used this site myself. Will run a sample test now and share my connection speed. These numbers are somewhat skewed because I'm capped during the day with my cable provider, but right now I've got a lot of horsepower. Downloading 1GB from a good source, not some p2p BS, would only take 9-10 minutes.
