If I have a poor network connection to the CVSup mirror used, then I'll spend much long connected to it. Thus causing a higher "load" on the mirror. Where "load" is either one of the connection slots, or actual kernel resource load if I have 20% packet loss and thus cause a lot of retransmissions to occur. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
