openUS very slow (35K/s) download times for src.rpm using wget
0%
Description
Admins,
I've had very very slow download times for both rpms and src.rpms from
download.opensuse.org and whatever redirectors they use when requests are made
from the US. Today I needed the qt3 source and when downloading the
qt3-extesions it took over 7 minutes for 14MB, e.g.
$ wget
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/src/qt3-extensions-3.3.8c-190.12.src.rpm
wget --no-check-certificate --progress=bar

I have also had Tumbleweed updates (dup) fail because the download takes so
long (over 1 hour) that packages no longer exist toward the end of the
download list -- because then have been replaced by new versions in the
repository. (I have the download-in-advance option set to help mitigate this
problem)
Is there something I can do, or something on your end that might help? I've
got a 300M connection, so 35.4KB/s seems awfully slow :(

Hi David,
source RPMs are often not available on contributed mirrors, and the sync of /repositories to our own mirror in the US unfortunately is very slow (sometimes it takes 1-2 days for RPMs to appear). The path /repositories/KDE%3A/KDE3/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/src seems to be missing completely from it, hence you seem to be getting redirected to a mirror in Germany, which is of course rather far from the US.
Hi @andriinikitin,
something you can check?
Best,
Georg

Yeah if you add .mirrorlist to a file url - you should see all the (known) mirrors that have the file.
And it looks only one mirror has that file at the moment:
Our main US mirror provo-mirror has quite recent files in https://provo-mirror.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ , my guess is that it has some filter to ignore src. But I have never looked into its config, so no big help from me at the moment.
