Wow!  That IS a fast mirror.  I'm getting 510KB/s with my DSL
connection.  I think that's approaching my top speed.

I've just been playing with the mirror to see how fast it is.  You
*must* remember to set passive off or the connection will drop without
any explanation.

I also saw regular connection refused although a few retries usually
does succeed in a connection.  After that, I saw a transfer rate of
about 175KBs to my home cable modem connection.  FWIW, AOL blocks pings
to the server, but a ping to their router averages about 45ms - pretty
darn decent!
