Yeah it has been up and down for a week now.

It came up around noon EST which would be 9 am PST.  They've decided to 
only run the data server when they are physically present in the office 
there at Berkeley, which means they are swamped for the 8 hours or so a 
day that they are up.

If it helps you, I noticed that throughput improved greatly yesterday at 
6pm EST, when people on the right coast went home from work.

PST is offset 8 hours from UTC and EST is offset 5 hours from UTC.
