Being always on the lookout for a good fast mirror I decided to compare
cse.unsw and mirror.aarnet to see how they fair. The time is about 10:00pm
so I expect that they are getting average trafic.

So it looks like unsw is a bit faster. However aarnet has much much more
stuff from what I could see. Think I will stick with aarnet for a while.
