FYI, in case you didn't know; there is a --resume function for emerge
thus:

# emerge --resume mysql

In case one has to continue a download for example.
You could also put this in your /etc/make.conf:

GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.linux.no/pub/gentoo/ http://mirror.pudas.net/gentoo";

This gives you servers closer to you (there is also a Danish server
available).
