IIRC the order is determined by ping response.
`$ ping mse.uk.packages.macports.org
PING www.mirrorservice.org (212.219.56.184): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 212.219.56.184: icmp_seq=0 ttl=50 time=17.979 ms
64 bytes from 212.219.56.184: icmp_seq=1 ttl=50 time=17.917 ms`
`$ ping lil.fr.packages.macports.org
PING macports.packages.ionic.de (87.98.244.45): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 87.98.244.45: icmp_seq=0 ttl=51 time=21.644 ms
64 bytes from 87.98.244.45: icmp_seq=1 ttl=51 time=21.675 ms`
yep, looks about right.
Same here.
the ping time doesn't seem to be the issue. More that downloads often
timeout, and when they don't, the download speed is pathetically small.
