I had similar problems as well when I worked for TI UK, it turned out to be proxy end point issues. After manually assigning an endpoint that was close by things improved a lot. The geo-ip based CDNs worked properly from then on. It might be that github suck in the UK, I only have one datapoint for the gcc stuff, which is my own connection at home. I only need to fetch gcc once, so I don't have a strong opinion on this switch, I just wanted to add some anecdotal evidence that the 1.3gb git download isn't all bad :) regards, Koen _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
