[Starlink] Starlink Performance Study

[Dave Taht]

Attached is a recent cloudflare test of verizon, taken about 1.2 miles from
a rural tower. While the bandwidth was low for reasons unknown, the latency
was... quite tolerable. Perhaps they are figuring this out.

I have no idea how atlas calculates latency or loss. Over what interval? In
the starlink case especially, I look at a typical plot, and I hope that if
more people looked at details like that, they would despair of using
averages ever again.
