We have put together a new IPFS measurement report for calendar week 10 in 2023 from `2023-03-20` to `2023-03-27` . You can find it here:

✨ Notable things:

- We added the `us-east-2` region to our experiments
- Website error rate higher than last week for several websites
- ~40% of all stable nodes are running in Vultr datacenters (Choopa == Vultr it seems) and 50% are running from the US

We were expecting that the retrieval performance from `us-east` would be very much closer, if not better than the `eu-central` one, compared to `us-west`, which doesn’t seem to be the case: [https://github.com/protocol/network-measurements/blob/master/reports/2023/calendar-week-12/ipfs/README.md#weekly](https://github.com/protocol/network-measurements/blob/master/reports/2023/calendar-week-12/ipfs/README.md#weekly)

It looks like `us-east` is in between `eu-central` and `us-west` in terms of retrieval performance.
