That makes perfect sense.

The mirror is nominally in a 100 MB/s link, although how much of that is
readily available to the server is hard to tell. I can say I have made
tests from various computers around Chile and it downloads at speeds of
1-2 MB/s. It has a pretty good national bandwidth, comparable to
debian.netlinux.cl.

I will take a moment to thank you for allowing a Round-Robin. The fact
is that a non-official mirror is usually in red, meaning it downloads
more than it serves. debian.nod.cl is currently at 10:1. Debian users
choose ftp.cl.d.o because it's Debian recommended, and the rest are
basically ignored. A Round-Robin is perhaps the only way of fully
utilizing the available bandwidth.
