Hello, As part of my portage-janitor scripts (https://github.com/iksaif/portage-janitor) I created a tool that counts URIs prefixes and sort them. Here is the result of this script on the gentoo-x86 tree:
$ ./mirrors.py --all --count 1262 http://dev.gentoo.org 483 http://oss.tresys.com 482 http://oss.tresys.com/files 482 http://oss.tresys.com/files/refpolicy 473 http://xorg.freedesktop.org 473 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases 473 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual 313 http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift 313 http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift/patches 309 http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift/patches/selinux-base-policy 297 http://pear.php.net 297 http://pear.php.net/get 296 http://hackage.haskell.org/packages 296 http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive 296 http://hackage.haskell.org 209 http://launchpad.net 206 http://ftp.xemacs.org 197 https://github.com 196 http://ftp.xemacs.org/pub 196 http://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs 193 http://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages 179 http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org 179 http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src 176 http://github.com 175 http://linuxgazette.net/ftpfiles 175 http://linuxgazette.net 139 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/app 130 http://pear.horde.org/get 130 http://pear.horde.org 126 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/driver 115 http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier 112 http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/dist 96 ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub 96 ftp://sources.redhat.com 94 http://savannah.nongnu.org/download 94 http://savannah.nongnu.org 92 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/lib 88 http://pecl.php.net 88 http://download.gna.org 88 http://pecl.php.net/get 84 http://dev.gentoo.org/~caster/distfiles 84 http://dev.gentoo.org/~caster 80 https://fedorahosted.org 74 http://get.qt.nokia.com 72 http://components.ez.no/get 72 http://components.ez.no 71 http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt 70 http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source 67 http://www.phrack.org/archives 67 http://www.phrack.org/archives/tgz And here are some mirrors that can be deduced from that (except freebsd-jp which I found reading the linphone ebuild): freebsd-jp ftp://ports.jp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp1.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp2.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp3.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp4.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp5.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp6.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp7.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp8.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp9.jp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.ics.es.osaka-u.ac.jp/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.ics.es.osaka-u.ac.jp/pub/mirrors/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.allbsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.nagaokaut.ac.jp/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.nara.wide.ad.jp/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/FreeBSD-jp/ pear http://pear.php.net/ http://de.pear.php.net/ http://us.pear.php.net/ redhat ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/ ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/ ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/ http://mirrors.kernel.org/sources.redhat.com/ http://sources-redhat.mirrors.airband.net/ ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/sourceware/ http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/sourceware/ ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/sources.redhat.com/ http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/sources.redhat.com/ ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/sourceware.org/ http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/sourceware.org/ http://bo.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/sourceware.org/ ftp://bo.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/sourceware.org/ ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/sources.redhat.com/pub/ http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/sources.redhat.com/pub/ xemacs http://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/ ftp://ftp.sa.xemacs.org/pub/ xorg http://xorg.freedesktop.org/pub/ http://ftp.x.org/pub/ That would affect ~1000 URIs. Unfortunatly I didn't found any mirror for: - pecl.php.net - hackage.haskell.org - get.qt.nokia.com - launchpad But maybe we should still add them to thirdpartymirrors ? Look at 3dgamers, beyondunreal, bitbucket, github, gnome, kernel, xfce, vdrfiles and vdr-developerorg: they all only have one mirror ! For those afraid to add these mirrors and patch all affected ebuilds: no worry, mirrors.py can do it for you, and I already generated splitted patches generated from various thirdpartymirrors here: http://xf.iksaif.net/dev/gentoo/ Note that as part of https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405533 mgorny already commited a massive amount of patches adding mirror:// when the URI prefix was already present in thirdpartymirrors.
