I presume you mean slowdown in traffic growth?

Doesn't the article say that there is no slowdown in growth?

"We see more of a slowdown than a speed-up."

You left out the "If anything". You also left out the "...monthly Internet traffic is between 900 and 1550 petabytes per month, up from 750 to 1250 petabytes at the end of 2007".

If anything, I don't interpret that as a slowdown, especially since he said "growth is still quite fast".

Edit: His statistics are at odds with use of the term "slowdown". Given an acceptable, normal variance they simply show a steady growth, but not some "flood" or "explosion" as predicted by ISPs and their lobbyists--the same people who claim "massive congestion" all along their networks (yeah, right). It's just business as usual.
