Just remember > that the closest may not produce the overall fastest cvsup. Not that I've tested this in any scientific manner, but I think the closest one is also the fastest in my case, as it is on the same /16-network that I'm on. In fact it's only about a km away, and it's 2Gbps all the way from my dorm room to the mirror, so I think my 10/100 nic is the limiting factor here. It could be out of sync or something, though. Whatever it was, it seems to be in order now (it may still be somewhat behind the master cvs-server, but the fixed index has at least found its way to the mirror now. And from there to my box.) sve
