Slow PPA downloads

[Mackenzie Morgan]

I've gotten slower than that from us.ubuntu.com.  On multiple occasions (and
I don't mean during the Gutsy release, it was a few weeks prior) I had
download speeds from that server where the speed was measured in bytes,
usually around 500-600 bytes per second when it's below 1K.  And I'm sure it
had to be the server, because it's not like I'm on dialup (and even if I
was...); I'm on a fiber optic connection where I can easily pull megabytes
per second when dealing with a server that can handle it (4MB/s down from
osuosl for an iso and one of my friends did 8MB/s down getting an iso from
Usenet).
