Darn insomnia ... The email subject should have been
about pkg_add, of course.
For instance, sysupgrade now displays:
base80.tgz 31% |********* | 168 MB 1:08:41
ETA
Could it be due to the installurl ? Really ? In any case,
pkg_add or sysupgrade is usually a matter of a few/dozen
minutes at most on my systems.

This is an oddity I have ran into at times, which I believe
comes from the system's close proximity to the edges of the Universe
rather than any major defect in the software, since in my experience
wiping the install with a new one from the same media and having set
similar install parameters usually kicks out the malfunction after
one re-install or two.
I am all ears if someone has another explanation for this.
Note that I have changed the default /etc/installurl
to https://ftp.fr.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD
