Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-properties-gtk

<khermans_> i think i would like to make the Mirror Choosing algorithm more 
efficient, but i wonder if you made it slower on purpose
* ivoks has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
<khermans_> in Synaptic
* ivoks ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) has joined #ubuntu-devel
<khermans_> It tried to pick from 100-200 servers
<mvo_> khermans_: the speed test in software-properties?
<khermans_> mvo_, yes
<mvo_> khermans_: what do you have in mind for it? if you want to hack on it, 
you are more than welcome :)
<khermans_> the test could be done in less than 3 seconds instead of 1 minute
<mvo_> khermans_: I'm all ears 
<khermans_> just open x number of connections simultaneously
<khermans_> in parallel
<khermans_> take first one that wins
<mvo_> khermans_: interessting! could you please open a whishlist bug against 
software-propoerties with this conversation? this way the idea will not get 
lost and glatzor will have a chance to see it as well
* mrevell has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
* jack_at_home ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) has joined #ubuntu-devel
<khermans_> mvo_, sure
