The fastest server seems to be:

Writing sources.list.
Done.


Contents of ./sources.list:
$ cat ./sources.list
# the main Debian packages.
deb http://72.51.51.7/debian/ stable main contrib
# Uncomment the deb-src line if you want 'apt-get source'
# to work with most packages.
# deb-src http://72.51.51.7/debian/ stable main contrib
# uncommenting the following line will enable security updates
#deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib


Copying ./sources.list to /etc/apt/sources.list and then executing:
# apt-get update
Ign http://72.51.51.7 stable Release.gpg

The system hangs in this state for lengthy minutes before returning

Reading package lists... Done

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.




Manually selecting other mirror repositories and putting them in /etc/apt/sources then running apt-get update work as expected.
