Australia's deploying fiber, so joke's on you!
But honestly this is horrible. I'm sitting at my desk at a well-peered ISP
with plenty of bandwidth and low, low latency and these patches are taking
forever. Someone should just add a pre-fetch routine that downloads the
first 1000 patches in a tarball, puts them in distfiles, and they well all
be verified and the remaining few be fetched normally.
Someone should teach upstream a serious lesson about versioning. Maybe
someone just needs to fork vim and tag releases on github so we can
actually have a sane upstream.
Good grief!
