Evening! There’s now a mirror of the substitutes from hydra.gnu.org available at <http://mirror.guixsd.org> (basically running nginx as a caching proxy.) To use it, simply pass:
--substitute-urls=http://mirror.guixsd.org This is strictly a mirror so no new signing key needs to be authorized. This is somewhat experimental, but hopefully it will provide better bandwidth than our poor hydra.gnu.org (and until we receive the replacement machine.) Keep in mind that this is a cache: on a cache miss, performance will be just as bad as with hydra.gnu.org, no wonder. If this works sufficiently well, I propose to change ‘%default-substitute-urls’ to: '("http://mirror.guixsd.org"; "http://hydra.gnu.org";) Let us know how well it works for you! Ludo’.
