 (2019-09-11 12:51:21 PM) anarcat: that's at cymru
 (2019-09-11 12:52:25 PM) anarcat: it's web-cymru-01.torproject.org
 specifically
 (2019-09-11 12:52:34 PM) anarcat: which file should i try to get?
 (2019-09-11 12:53:03 PM) anarcat: ( i found the server through a search in
 ldap)
 (2019-09-11 12:53:54 PM) pospeselr:
 https://dist.torproject.org/torbrowser/8.5.5/tor-browser-linux64-8.5.5_en-
 US.tar.xz
 (2019-09-11 12:54:36 PM) anarcat: Connecting to dist.torproject.org
 (dist.torproject.org)|2620:0:6b0:b:225:dada:19:1|:443... failed: Network
 is unreachable.
 (2019-09-11 12:54:37 PM) anarcat: duh
 (2019-09-11 12:55:18 PM) anarcat: i'm getting 130KB/s there now
 (2019-09-11 12:55:30 PM) pospeselr: yeah exactly
 (2019-09-11 12:55:41 PM) pospeselr: and it'll slow down to tourghly 50
 kb/s shortly
 (2019-09-11 12:56:33 PM) anarcat: yeah, there might be saturation there
 (2019-09-11 12:56:39 PM) anarcat: i'll take a look at the host (moly)
 (2019-09-11 12:58:26 PM) anarcat: network's saturated on moly
 (2019-09-11 12:58:28 PM) anarcat: 12MB/s
 (2019-09-11 12:58:32 PM) anarcat: mbps
 (2019-09-11 1:01:38 PM) arma1: anarcat: in the past, sometimes, cymru ran
 black box ddos resistance doohickeys on their network, and we discovered
 them (and bugs in them) by seeing anomalies like this
 (2019-09-11 1:09:41 PM) anarcat: well it sure seems like the cymru web
 mirror is capped to 100mbps
