We are seeing a routing loop at Qwest at one of our sites.

Looks to me like the latency from Qwest to Google
(chx-edge-03.inet.qwest.net [67.14.38.5] to 72.14.214.78) is quite
tolerable, but the delay(s) inside Google are a tad bit high. I see much
the same thing from work and from home to 74.125.236.52. As soon as I jump
times go up sharply along the route to 74.125.236.52.

You can traceroute from all their POPS here if you'd like:

Having said that, that IP has similar horrible latency from my non-qwest
connection. Additionally, google does not resolve to that IP for me, which
is expected. It does look like poor routing on google's network. There's
one hop counting for 100 latency, then another adding another 100ms latency,
with little latency increases at other intermediary hops. I suspect
something heading overseas and back between hop 5-6 and 7-8.

I mentioned qwest because when I checked via another path (HE) it was
fine. Does appear to be a google issue, I guess, based on further
testing. Ho hum..
