SuSE Sites excruciatingly slow nowdays
Hi.. something has happened to the performance of the SuSE web site(s).. They're incredibly slow nowdays, along with correspondent packet losses most of the time (verified from several different physical networks, etc) Granted this seems to only be an issue if you are not on the continent, but alot of us need the resources that are now only available physically in .DE Len (I wish I could afford to volunteer a mirror but bandwidth is an issue)

Web pages shouldn't be a great problem. If you want file downloads and updates, there are lots of good mirror sites. My favourite is www.mirror.ac.uk, which runs off some big blue Sun boxen in Lancaster and Canterbury. Usually it's much faster than SuSE's sites (even over an ISDN connection).
