That sounds pretty reasonable.  But hearing some getting 700 kB/s it
makes me think something else negative was at work too.

It's showing up on the mirrors:

It just takes a while for 2 Gigs of material to transfer out of the
Paris office to the master rsync server to all of the top tier rsync
servers to all of the second tier rsync servers.  I think that usc that
I quoted above is a third tier rsync server (but I'm not totally sure
about that).  It takes a little while :)
