The last couple of days, I've been having problems with interactive ssh into
login.tools.wmflabs.org <http://login.tools.wmflabs.org/>. Every so often (multiple
times an hour, at least), my connection will hang for a few seconds. Sometimes more like
10-15 seconds. I connect from my home MacOS box on broadband using:
ssh -t -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa_wikimedia
roysmith(a)login.tools.wmflabs.org tmux attach -t work
The load doesn't look unreasonable:
$ uptime
18:26:34 up 35 days, 9:04, 39 users, load average: 0.74, 1.93, 1.80
and ping times look fine:
$ ping -v
login.tools.wmflabs.org
PING

I'm in New York City, and
login.tools.wmflabs.org
<http://login.tools.wmflabs.org/> looks like it's in Virginia, so that's
pretty close.
This seems to have started in the past few days. Anybody else seeing problems?
