Like a bunch of people I'm seeing occasional sudden lag spikes this update. They are probably not local ISP spikes because several times the desync, sudden hit with 9 things at once was experienced by multiple people in the dungeon run at the same time - ie it's more likely server side. This was also PvE so it's not Cyrodil scaling or people using cheats. Otherwise the game ping was steady at 100-133. They are also sharp edged - it's 100-133, lag bomb, 9 simultaenous hits, died and back to normal a couple of seconds later.
Otherwise the current update has noticably improved random loading screens, and seems to have fixed some of the problems in Rimmen where the floor doesn't load for ages near the crafting hand in and you get stuck running on the spot.
But I hope Zenimax now under Microsoft would pay more attention to its networking performance and usage of Akamai.

Today the ping has been fluctuating between 330 and 999+.
I did a internet speed test, no issues there: https://www.speedtest.net/result/10223926386.png
I also jumped in ESO right after playing another game with servers in NA and was getting a steady 103 to 110 ping the whole time.
This is an ESO issue.
