So that indicates a significant improvment by switching to the git://
server protocol. Can we get that on darcs.haskell.org?
In general git is doing a good job here addressing slow 'darcs get '
times, which are now way way down. This will make life easier for some
of us.
Mirroring automatically to github could also address some of our
redundancy concerns.
I'm working on both issues with Ian and Paul. The current setup also
isn't friendly to incremental pulls over http. I'm working on it.
