Notes & considerations
- Update Frequency: Mirrors sync with upstream sources on a scheduled basis. Delays of a few hours may occur.
- Data Integrity: We strive to ensure that all mirrored data is complete and untampered. You are encouraged to verify checksums (SHA256/SHA512/MD5) or GPG signatures provided by upstream.
- Mirror Selection: While we are happy to provide open access, we recommend using your geographically closest mirror for optimal speed and reliability.
- Download Managers: We support HTTP range requests and multithreaded downloads. You may use tools like
wget,aria2, orcurlfor advanced fetching.
