how can it be that a locally located debian mirror is slower than basically ANY foreign debian mirror?
I can achieve at best 40kb/s but normally get 5 - 15kb/s from this mirror hosted by citylink AFAIK.
the ihug debain mirror is super fast, but packages there are sometimes (ie constantly) out of date.
I apologise if this has already been covered or is common knowledge but just hoping someone could quickly explain why citylink is so slow from Xtra.
