title: Slow speeds on Amazon S3 bucket upload
body: <p>I'm using an Amazon S3 bucket for my media files on my django project. I've enabled Transfer Acceleration on my s3 bucket and I've also changed these settings from this</p>
  <pre><code>S3_URL = '//%s.s3.amazonaws.com/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
  MEDIA_URL = '//%s.s3.amazonaws.com/media/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
  </code></pre>
  <p>to</p>
  <pre><code>S3_URL = '//%s.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
  MEDIA_URL = '//%s.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/media/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
  </code></pre>
  <p>Unfortunately, these changes have made 0 difference when it comes to my upload speed. From where I am, my upload seems to hit 200kb/s, which is fairly slow. I'm on a 330mbit download / 15mbit upload connection.</p>
  <p>Questions:</p>
  <ol>
  <li>Is 200kb/s a good speed for upload to s3?</li>
  <li>Are there any other obvious or not so obvious things I can check for or change so that my speeds improve?</li>
  </ol>
  <p>Thanks for your help!</p>
