As a consumer network, I no longer saw value in PIPE IX a while ago - very different for a hosting network as TPG are a large number of consumer population, but given Google, Apple, Netflix, Akamai, Cloudflare, Amazon, Microsoft etc are all on at least 1 or 2 of NSW-IX, EIE or MegaIX, then I saw no need for PIPE and its expensive price tag.<br />
<br />
I actually calculated the other day, at my current average combined usage and cost of the 3 IX's I peer with, it works out about 40% cheaper per mbit compared to my transit costs, but obviously has lots of room for growth at the same fixed cost so that will only get better. IX's also account for 40-60% of my inbound traffic also, so definitely cheap!<br />

<p>There are a lot of people industry wide trying to determine whether they should start dropping the PIPE fabric nationally with the only legitimate reason being 'TPG advertise some of subnets here'. </p>

Good question Shane!<br />

<div>Hijacking this a little bit, what do people actually look for when you're deciding what IXP you should peer with? Is it table size, traffic volume, or a specific peer that's on the fabric?<br />
<br />
I've always peered with WAIX because that's just what we had, but i'm curious what metrics people care about when you have a choice.<br />
