I tried cvsup3.us.freebsd.org (the example you showed in your supfile), and it seemed fine; not just fast, but fully in synch with my usual cvsup host (although it was busy enough that I had to try for a while before I got in). So whatever is going on does seem to be local to you. Try increasing the verbosity of cvsup; it may be able to tell you what its problem is.
