Public bug reported:
Load on the main Ubuntu archive servers is rather peakish, and tends to
create a traffic peak on our Internet links at fairly regular times each
day, preventing customers from accessing the archive. This impacts the
cloud archive mirrors using the ubuntu-repository-cache charm also,
because they are hitting a squid cache which is backed by the main
archive. This effect will be even more pronounced under the recently-
announced automatic update policy for xenial.
One solution which would alleviate this to some extent would be to
spread the load over a longer period by increasing the random sleep time
in the daily update script from 30 minutes to, say, 1-2 hours.
