Package: security.debian.org Severity: important Hello,
As discussed on debian-security, this host (82.94.249.158) has been performing very poorly for many weeks, to the extent that people using apt with it are severely hampered during day-to-day operations (most download attempts from it appear to time-out). I believe this warrants the severity of 'Important': http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2006/02/msg00047.html (and continuing in March: http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2006/03/msg00002.html) Here are some quick tests - they are confirmed by the discussion above: $ time GET -H 'Host: security.debian.org' http://82.94.249.158/debian-security/dists/sarge/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages > /dev/null [interrupt with ^C] real 1m7.708s $ time GET -H 'Host: security.debian.org' http://128.101.240.212/debian-security/dists/sarge/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages > /dev/null real 0m2.003s $ time GET -H 'Host: security.debian.org' http://194.109.137.218/debian-security/dists/sarge/updates/main/binary-i386/Packages > /dev/null real 0m0.519s I would be grateful if those responsible for maintaining the debian.org zone file would remove this IP address from the round-robin for the time being, until the problems with this host have been resolved. Apologies if this is already been looked at; in the event that it is, it might be worth an announcement on debian-devel-announce or debian-security-announce. If I am able to provide any more details on this issue, I will be more than happy to help. Many thanks, Dominic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
