Puppet users - Aug 2014 - Access to apt.puppetlabs.com slow for some IP addresses

Hello,

we are currently creating and tearing down lots of VMs in our lab 
environment. This includes retrieving and installing Puppet from the 
Puppetlabs repository at apt.puppetlabs.com. Recently we found that from 
some addresses in our lab's /24 access to http://apt.puppetlabs.com is 
painfully slow (things are trickling in at ~800 bytes per second). We 
double-checked our lab network and the automated VM provisioning process 
and found nothing amiss. Now we are wondering whether we ran into some kind 
of rate limiting on the repository's side, since we do repeatedly retrieve 
the same packages in the course of VM provisioning, more often than not 
from the same IP address. One of the 'slow' addresses in question is 
37.44.0.243. Is there anyone on this list who could look into this?

If we are indeed causing too much load we'd be happy to set up a public 
mirror of apt.puppetlabs.com.

Cheers,

Johannes
