Sort of weird from personal experience, but OVH seems to update better than 
most.  If anyone on OVH is here, feel free to explain.
Just looking at freshclam logs on my local servers running on links with 
L3/Cogent vs OVH I seem to have less issues on the OVH mirrors.
My personal explanation is that I’m getting just what they are receiving, so I 
don’t see all the failures, and they are probably checking at a higher rate 
then my monitoring servers.  This has nothing to do with Clam, but just the 
distribution of updates amongst caching servers.

I’ve never attempted to mirror a local ClamAV update server, but I wouldn’t be 
opposed, as some of my clients are probably downloading updates as well.  But 
my guess is that you are only getting limited by the local request to the 
server.
