Quoting Ely Levy, from the post of Wed, 19 Feb:
> How is debian mirroring going in israel?

IGLU is mirroring i386, and Marc is mirroring a few esoteric platforms
from behind ADSL (or is it STILL frame relay? Can't remember)

IGLU is NOT on ADSL, it's most definitely sitting in Actcom's hosting
room on a shelf:

IGLU currently runs very close to its storage limit and Debian's mirror
often suffers a few days without updates. this will hopefully be fixed
with a new promised server from Sun. await further announcements.

I get great speed from IGLU as an Actcom user, I also get excellent
speed from the main US and non-US debian servers, much better than the
European mirrors apt-spy comes up with (full 190KBps from iglu,
130-185KBps from main Debian, 50KBps and less from European mirrors).
note that apt-spy, although it's a cute idea, will not try Israeli
mirrors as none of them are official, nor will it try the main servers
as it obviously tries to take traffic off of them. It is interesting to
try and use apt-proxy if you are going to be mirroring it for a campus.
it could be as good as a mirror if tweaked right, while savng you the
storage space.

with your Inet2 backbone connection, no IIX host will beat going to the
source directly, or TAU.
