This was done via a Vodaphone cable (ex Telstra) connection in Lower Hutt, New Zealand
http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3790128466

I did this last year on Sunday July 14 2013 if you want to compare results: https://gist.github.com/rhulse/5992832

The rationale of the test was to see if we (Radio NZ) are improving over time (we do lots of internal testing) and as against other media sites.

In couple of weeks www.radionz.co.nz is getting a couple of big performance upgrades (more details on this later) and this data will serve as a benchmark to see how much we've improved.

# This code is designed to cleanup Word HTML to a very great extent.
# It is used at Radio NZ to cleanup documents created in Word prior to
# parsing them, line by line, to extract content.

# The Word content is pasted into WYSIWYG which is then HTTP POSTed into 
# the app where the string is cleaned by this code.

# We add new lines after block elements because the next stage is a line-based 
# parser

rhulse

# This code is used to 'line parse' schedules that are create in MS Word.
# It build on the gist http://gist.github.com/552955

# Once the HTML is cleaned up in core, it is passed into a class
# based on the type of document.

# Each class works through a schedule document line-by-line, determining 
# the context - what is the day and event

# These events are stored and imported into the main CMS.
