    Fascinating discovery!

    http://abcinfo.s3.amazonaws.com/something.doc

    Is CONSISTENTLY slower than the other reference mechanism!

    File used: Length: 3716075 (3.5M) 

    wget http://myfolder.s3.amazonaws.com/mytestfile.mp4
7.0s
wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/myfolder/mytestfile.mp4
2.2s
wget http://myfolder.s3.amazonaws.com/mytestfile.mp4
9.7s
wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/myfolder/mytestfile.mp4
2.2s
wget http://s3.amazonaws.com/myfolder/mytestfile.mp4
2.1s
wget http://myfolder.s3.amazonaws.com/mytestfile.mp4
9.9s
wget http://myfolder.s3.amazonaws.com/mytestfile.mp4

    Average time taken in http://myfolder mechanism:

    8.95 seconds

    Average time taken in /myfolder/ mechanism:

    2.166666667 seconds

    ie, the former is at least FOUR times as slower!
