No, I'm not > looking for more mirrors right now.) Both freebsd-update and portsnap seem to be very fast for me at the moment. It looks like we have update2 in the dns rotation (at least when I queried): ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org. IN SRV ;; ANSWER SECTION: _http._tcp.update.freebsd.org. 1707 IN SRV 1 25 80 update2.FreeBSD.org. _http._tcp.update.freebsd.org. 1707 IN SRV 1 30 80 update4.FreeBSD.org. _http._tcp.update.freebsd.org. 1707 IN SRV 1 10 80 update1.FreeBSD.org. _http._tcp.update.freebsd.org. 1707 IN SRV 1 10 80 update3.FreeBSD.org. Keep up the good work.
