I don't think that the problems of MAE-EAST necessarily indicate problems with the exchange point concept in general. Others have indicated satisfaction with exhange points run by other parties. What the problems of MAE-EAST indicate to me is that FDDI/GigaSwitches are not the appropriate technology for MAE-EAST sized exchanges and that MFS is the wrong company to be running an exhange point.
I don't really fault MFS with these problems. Show me another exchange that is trying to pass as much traffic as MAE-east is and functioning properly. Plus which, I don't know of any major players who are overly happy with public exchanges. That's why they are going to private interconnects.
