How I see the setup, it would be a HTTP reverse proxy with caching enabled. That way only the accessed files are transferred over, avoiding unnecessary traffic. One downside is that it requires a bit of tuning and monitoring to make sure it's running efficiently. First accesses to files are also do

Thanks for sharing Daniel, I see another thread around my same topic ("still waiting for https://cache.nixos.org after 5 seconds..."). So I'm happy to see such open discussion. It seems they have some projects in the pipe to improve the delivery. But I will be happy to support in a short or long t
