[SM-Discuss] Do you download our products fast enough?

Hey all,

In the past we have turned down extra hosting for mirrors (not just fallback 
mirrors, but full mirrors such as dbg and ibiblio) as our current mirrors are 
more than sufficient.

Is anyone finding themselves not receiving fast[0] downloads from our mirrors 
in their locality? Should we look to finding mirrors placed in various 
locations around the world? The U.S., currently, seems well taken care of, but 
what about the rest of the world?

Is this even a concern or problem for anyone? I haven't been hearing any 
complaints, but I don't want to exclude people from getting SMGL as fast as 
they can. ;)

[0] Obviously you won't be getting 10Mbps if *your* ISP only allows 1Mbps. ;)
