Re: [swinog] mirror.switch.ch overloaded?

Yes, this is very possible; after looking at the transfer statistics Fedora is first by number of hits (600'000) and kb/s (51'000).

The average traffic load is around 430 Mbits/s. I don't know if we can expect more from this kind of hardware; a sun fire V440 (4xCPU). Don't use mirror for throughput tests, the results aren't reliable. The server is well tuned, quite fast, sometime busy, but still gratis!

The Cassini interfaces, if they are well tuned, can deliver easily gigabit performance, if your storage and application is fast enough.
