I agree that it's not so bad.
One complaint however is that at the moment all our traffic goes via
Melbourne (we are in Brisbane). That's like close to a 4000km trip when we
want access a local mirror like mirror.aarnet.edu.au. :P It's a bit stupid
but apparently it's only temporary.
It's a bit insane actually because I can sometimes access stuff that is on
the other side of the planet almost as quick as something that is a few
suburbs away. :)
