the lag spikes happening currently or that were happening we're aware of. If you have lag at other times, try installing optifine. It's free and allowed on the server.

Optifine has nothing to do with the latency to the server. The lag has been daily for months now, and yes it is better sometimes, but they are period of hours. The routing to NY servers is just very strange with this minecraft server. And it's affecting me. I can play fine if I change the routing by using a VPN. It's amazing to see traceroutes to jump to 4000ms once it went from EU to US ix-points.
According to an earlier post by the admins, the ddos filter manages to prioritize US traffic over EU traffic and/or incorrectly rate limits EU traffic. Not necaserely a routing issue. The ddos filters often are implemented at data center level and that's also were the traceroutes show the increased latency.
