IOW, the mirror is http://mirror.us.leaseweb.net
Or maybe the problem is that leaseweb.net is a worldwide fleet of mirrors, among those in CONUS: https://www.leaseweb.com/ 185.28.70.130 https://mirror.leaseweb.net/ 207.244.94.80 mirror.dal13.us.leaseweb.net Dallas 209.58.153.1 mirror.mia11.us.leaseweb.net Miami 23.82.143.211 (nearest me) mirror.sfo12.us.leaseweb.net San Jose, CA 209.58.135.187 mirror.wdc1.us.leaseweb.net Manassas, VA 207.244.94.80

It's a small file, barely a 1Mb - it's best to grab something bigger to get a useful indication.

It's now about 3.7 hours since I reported on IRC opensuse-admin about how slow refresh of SLE repo is. Earlier it had taken many minutes to refresh SLE. --

Downloading : http://mirror.us.leaseweb.net/opensuse/update/leap/15.3/sle/repodata/<whatever-the-latest-is>-primary.xml.gz
From my location, (Zurich, Switzerland) - 14.2MB/sec From Provo, Utah, US - 6.6MB/sec From Hetzner, Germany - 12.6MB/sec From Nuernberg, Germany - 26.2MB/sec
(and those numbers varied a lot).
Regardless, it is back to a matter of two points and how well connected they are. and how heavily loaded the mirror is. I'm going to try setting SLE to mirror.mia11.us.leaseweb.net for next rounds of Leap updates. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
