Response times for major sites in Europe are noticeably faster than in the U.S. for the studied week. Google was a second and a half faster; Facebook a half-second faster; MSN was twice as fast in Europe as in the U.S., where it bottomed-out the rankings at 16.17 seconds. Success rate, on the other hand, was noticeably lower in the European index.
