[arch-mirrors] Best tier 1 mirror for tier 2 mirrors

[m***@dlaube.de]

Hi,




it seems like the score of a mirror is associated with the uDelay value. Because the uDelay value of my mirror is depending on the uDelay of my sync mirror i want to use the one with least uDelay.


Is there such a list or can i filter the mirrorlist for tier 1 mirrors with low uDelay?




Regards,


Daniel

You can take a look at this[1], but really, I think while reducing the
delay in general is good, you shouldn't force it. I suggest you use a
mirror that is geographically close and provides good performance
(throughput and latency). Sure, if the choice is between one that syncs
once a day and one that syncs more often, pick the better one, but if
the difference is between one hour or every minute, I wouldn't sweat it.
