This is a fairly high-bandwidth service which would benefit from being dished up from more than one location, and we're moving it onto new hardware soon anyway. Deploying it on both 'redtail' (US) and 'albatross' (EU) would let us do some funky stuff with UltraDNS to load balance over the pair. With low TTL values we can also use this for failover.
Not directly related, but close. Most every time now-days when there is a new distfiles mirror application from Asia, they have many syncing issues from indiana.edu - Please keep that in mind if there is a sponsor available in Eurasia in the future.
