Hey, do the math. :-) Where else are projects announced? Do they have comparable numbers? I guess there's hosting at sourceforge, google code and github - but are they easy to browse? (I've never browsed them... I just had a go at github, it's mindbogglingly slow to serve every page, also few java projects). I'm asking these three (3) questions out of curiosity.

Where are you located? GitHub's average page response is 400ms according to our NewRelic data.
Thanks for asking. I'm in Melbourne, Australia
ping github.com = 192ms
loading http://github.com/bmizerany/sinatra/tree/work = 11000ms (11 secs)
wget of the same took between 1000-5000ms (1-5secs)
If there's a lot of javascript, that might be slowing it down.
