The ARM server latency is pretty good where pkgbuild.com is a nightmare. $ time wget -qO/dev/null https://seblu.net/a/arm/2014 wget -qO/dev/null https://seblu.net/a/arm/2014 0,02s user 0,00s system 33% cpu 0,063 tot $ time wget -qO/dev/null http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/tree/?id=0b2c85b0b252c9bab30df2c411d506bf3475a1ae wget -qO/dev/null 0,17s user 0,74s system 18% cpu 4,970 total > > The aur.git backup has no such convenient wrapper.
