FastSoft Software Upgrade Helps Web Properties Reduce Page Load Time

Custom Graphs and Packet Capture Features Give Greater Control to Accelerate Dynamic Content

PASADENA, CA – August 17, 2010 – FastSoft, Inc., the leading Web acceleration software company, unveiled its latest software release today which gives greater control over dynamic content to Web properties and Internet retailers. The upgrade includes custom graphs and diagnostic tools that help network operators optimize for a fast end-user experience and troubleshoot problems in the network.

“Customers are always trying to figure out which traffic to keep in-house and which to give to a content distribution network. It’s a hard decision to make without knowing where your Web visitors are located geographically,” reported George Lee, FastSoft’s Infrastructure Technologist. “Our customized graphs show how far away your visitors are in network distance so you make can make that decision more easily.”

The software upgrade also includes a diagnostic tool that selectively captures TCP packets in the network, helping network administrators pinpoint problems between devices in their network and clients in the outside world.

“It’s pretty hard to get a detailed packet capture when something goes wrong in the network,” said Lee. ”Our diagnostic tool is convenient because it outputs packet captures in standard Wireshark format. It’s a handy overall tool that provides a helpful window into the network, and gives better control for companies that serve dynamic content.”
