I don't know is this is related, but from my end, access to svn.python.org has been extremely slow recently:
$ time curl -o /dev/null http://svn.python.org % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 353 100 353 0 0 4 0 0:01:28 0:01:15 0:00:13 0 real 1m15.045s user 0m0.004s sys 0m0.004s I've seen similar slowdowns accessing bugs.python.org, but not now. It looks like it has something to do with IPv6: $ host svn.python.org svn.python.org has address 82.94.164.164 svn.python.org has IPv6 address 2001:888:2000:d::a4 $ time curl -v -o /dev/null http://svn.python.org * About to connect() to svn.python.org port 80 (#0) * Trying 2001:888:2000:d::a4... Operation timed out * Trying 82.94.164.164... connected ... No slowdown when IPv6 lookup is disabled with -4 option to curl: $ time curl -4 -o /dev/null http://svn.python.org % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 353 100 353 0 0 774 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0 real 0m0.463s user 0m0.004s sys 0m0.004s On Sun, Dec 14, 2008 at 8:58 AM, <s...@pobox.com> wrote: > > Martin> Well - can you resolve `svn.python.org' on that machine > Martin> (e.g. when using ping(1))? > > Yup: > > $ host svn.python.org > svn.python.org has address 82.94.164.164 > svn.python.org has IPv6 address 2001:888:2000:d::a4 > $ ping svn.python.org > PING svn.python.org (82.94.164.164): 56 data bytes > 64 bytes from 82.94.164.164: icmp_seq=0 ttl=50 time=134.041 ms > 64 bytes from 82.94.164.164: icmp_seq=1 ttl=50 time=135.441 ms > 64 bytes from 82.94.164.164: icmp_seq=2 ttl=50 time=135.352 ms > ^C > --- svn.python.org ping statistics --- > 3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss > round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 134.041/134.945/135.441/0.640 ms > $ telnet svn.python.org 80 > Trying 82.94.164.164... > Connected to svn.python.org. > Escape character is '^]'. > ^] > telnet> quit > Connection closed. > > Skip > _______________________________________________ > Python-Dev mailing list > Python-Dev@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev > Unsubscribe: > http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/alexander.belopolsky%40gmail.com > _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
