This was on a residential Comcast connection which seems to be AS7922. I tried to avoid any local slowdowns by doing this with a wired connection at a time when there was little other activity on the machine or the LAN and downloading to a tmpfs. Anecdotally, the speeds for servers *other* than bordeaux-us-east-mirror were faster in this trial than feels typical here. The results I reported at https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-07/msg00320.html (e.g. 8.17MB/s for bordeaux.guix.gnu.org) might be more usual. Subjectively, my impression of the non-mirrored substitute servers is that often the speeds is ok, but when they are slow it is very, very slow. Philip
