Thank you very much, an experimental `wget` shows I get much higher speeds from this:

```

```

I will try it out as the first server in `--substitute-urls`.

Would it not be appropriate to somehow put a list of such substitute servers (even if it is currently only a single mirror) somewhere official, like the Guix manual? I suppose if Peng Mei Yu thinks this mirror would be maintained long term?

Thanks
