Surprise surprise cogent has been showing better performance to a lot more routes over the past few months. Especially to Europe. We've tested it against, Internap, Savvis, AT&T, Level3, Global Crossing and UUnet. And cogent has held very strong against various testing, but much the same no one should just use one carrier.

But if people are willing to make a small compromise for large savings and see minimal differences overall to your customer base cogent is a great deal.
