Description

This does not look right:

In this case, it means my download is not given the best mirror, http://mirror.hostsuisse.com/opensuse, but instead a much slower mirror on https and ipv4 only.

What is funny is - the redirect to mirrorcache-eu doesn't happen all the time: ??

I guess the missing support for AS numbers means I can't be given the best mirror ? (that's separate issue though).

Please excuse me delayed reply.

The first problem was probably some temporary glitch, I haven't seen any complain like this last year.

Is the other question still the issue?
It is true that AS redirection is not supported by MirrorCache.
Currently only Geo distance / Country / Continent is taken in consideration.

Did you consider using a client tool which can determine the best url using metalinks? E.g.

aria2c http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.4-DVD-x86_64-Build243.2-Media.iso.meta4
