Hello, everyone.

TL;DR: I'm thinking of shutting down all gentoo-mirror repositories,
except for gentoo and guru.

Hi,

I guess i'm a bit late in this discussion but i wanted to let you know this would also affect my gentoo qa scripts. (https:// gentooqa.levelnine.at). Right now i'm checking the gentoo, guru, kde, science and pentoo repositories, syncing the repos from gentoo-mirror for the pre-created metadata. While the gentoo repository is probably the most valuable, kde, science and pentoo checks would be non functional and i probably would have to remove them. (at least until i update my script to create the metadata myself..)

Updating the script would ideally just consist of adding the line

    pkg repo metadata regen --use-local $REPO

to the script.

As radhermit wrote, pkgcraft is pretty fast these days. I do this for multiple repos on every sync and barely notice it.
