Hello, I'd like to propose a change to pacman, but I don't know if someone is 
already working on it for the next release. I think it would be useful if 
pacman could hold the first working mirror when downloading updates. Yesterday 
I was upgrading all my packages and, for some reason, the first five mirrors 
timed out after a few seconds, so every time pacman was downloading a package, 
it checked all the mirrors from the beginning until it found one where to grab 
the updated package. I had many old packages so this process quickly became a 
little frustrating, and to me it would have been faster if it remembered the 
first working mirror instead of checking all of them every time.
