I stick the distfiles in ~/public_distfiles so it gets the load-distribution love, but it seems that none of the mirrors updates from there very frequently -- I usually end up not getting the file to fetch until the next day. If I commit my port update before it gets distributed, I usually get email complaints from users that day. Would it be possible for a single mirror that is in MASTER_SITE_LOCAL to sync local-distfiles more frequently, so that porters can commit local-distfile ports quicker after rolling them?
