Hello, I've noticed that ever since update3.freebsd.org is gone (which was in Czech republic I think), FreeBSD updates are often quite slow for me (= Austria/Europe) Especially so for major release upgrades. In fact so slow that I have time to type this mail while waiting for '8778 patches....'. The other day, freebsd-update even suffered a timeout. What are other European users experiences and is there anything to do about it? Regards Ferdinand -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Following up on my own mail:> to type this mail while waiting for '8778 patches....'.Which has ended in: 7110....7120 done. Applying patches... done. Fetching 1965 files... failed. and after restarting it: Fetching 1750 patches [...] Applying patches... done. Fetching 326 files... This does not seem very reassuring to me. :(> > The other day, freebsd-update even suffered a timeout. > > What are other European users experiences and is there anything to do about > it? > > Regards > Ferdinand-- Ferdinand Goldmann System Administrator Information Management JOHANNES KEPLER UNIVERSITY LINZ Altenberger Stra?e 69 Hochschulfond Building, HF9902 4040 Linz, Austria P +43 732 2468 3925 ferdinand.goldmann at jku.at www.jku.at/im -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It does *NOT* work through a proxy, due to the use of pipelined http-requests. What?s your internet-connection?
