Thanks for your answer!
We are refreshing every 4 hours, now we will check hourly (let's say, less than one hour after the previous rsync finishes).
I know that our big brother Brasil is there, but even traffic from Uruguay is routed to Brasil... that is what I found weird. (as a matter of fact, I realized it downloading from home and being redirected to Brasil, not our mirror).
Formerly we rsynced from:
rsync://stage.opensuse.org/opensuse-full-really-everything-including-repositories/opensuse
and found that after big updates in one branch, it took ages for other branches to become updated, thus, we broke the initial script into
so each of these branches update in parallel.... but we are not syncing the root folder anymore. Do you think that it could make any trouble?
thanks again

[openSUSE Tracker] Issue #125615 has been updated by avicenzi. Assignee set to andriinikitin Hi Ariel, My theory is that we now have many mirrors in South America, more precisely, in Brazil. The requests are sent to the closest mirror based on distance (lat/long) from IPs, so, as Brazil is the biggest country and has the most openSUSE users, requests are not leaving the country that easily. The south of Brazil is now covered by a mirror in Porto Alegre (RS) and Florianópolis (SC) before these users could go to São Paulo or even Uruguay. This leaves your mirror for most likely Uruguayan users and depending on the freshness of the data, users can still be sent somewhere else (RS, SC, or SP in Brazil due to distance) in case the files are not found in your mirror. I also noticed that many users are on Tumbleweed in SA, and your mirror is red because the data is not fresh. To solve that you should sync more frequently, maybe every 2h or even a shorter period. This is just a theory for now, but Andrii may be able to dig some metrics from our servers.

We are receiving almost no traffic to our mirror, but we don't see any trouble with the data, update scripts or other working details. I checked at https://mirrors.opensuse.org/ where we are still listed, yet, few things on green. Could you please let us know if there is something not working as expected? Our mirror is espejito.fder.edu.uy regards ariel
