No.  Some portion of SJU's network, local to Maelstrom, is rotting away.

If you start with last weeks stats and move forward, there's a weak case
to be made that barnecles started building up somewhere over the weekend.
By Tuesday night something was obviously degrading and, by Wednesday,
response was becoming noticibly bad, which is when I started mentioning
a possible problem to various network types.  Thursday morning started
off bad and went down-hill with acknowlegment from the network types that
yes, there's a problem, but no clear indication exactly what the problem
was.  Right now Maelstrom has been disconnected and the network folks
are still trying to locate the problem (which is still visible with
Maelstrom physically disconnected).
