I have access to 100 each way, but in my room it's CPU limited. Technically we're only allowed 10 down and 2 up, but me and a flatmate discovered a way to get around it. Unfortunately Putty only seems single threaded for me, so my CPU is "maxed" at 25% as it's only using one thread, so one core. If it could use more threads I could do 100Mbps. This is for the decryption as we're using SSH.

My flatmate somehow manages to get ~85-90Mbps though and his CPU is doing more than 25% :S.

This is more like it, massive difference between peak and off-peak!

If you don't have close access to a fast server then there's no point in having fast interwebs anyway since you cant use the bandwidth in the first place.
