Thanks for pointing this out. I actually recommend that people use jigdo irrespective of whether they have a fast or slow mirror. You might also want to try ftp://ftp.iitm.ac.in/debian with jigdo, especially if you are in Chennai (it has been fast for me in Chennai). As I write this, archive update is in progress though. (A file called Archive-Update-in-Progress-rocky-mountain.csail.mit.edu.lock is present there at this time).
