Pacoloco causes 10s lag during system upgrades #128
Description
Pacoloco seems to cause a 10s long lag during system upgrades. With pacoloco as the mirror, sudo pacman -Syu hangs for 10s during the "Synchronizing package databases..." step.
pacman debug logs indicating the problem is related to sig files:
:: Synchronizing package databases...
<pause for 10s>
...
debug: failed retrieving file 'core.db.sig' from my-pacoloco-server : Operation too slow. Less than 1 bytes/sec transferred the last 10 seconds
debug: core.db.sig: no more servers to retry
debug: extra.db.sig: curl returned result 28 from transfer
debug: failed retrieving file 'extra.db.sig' from my-pacoloco-server : Operation too slow. Less than 1 bytes/sec transferred the last 10 seconds
debug: extra.db.sig: no more servers to retry
debug: curl_download_internal return code is 0
I notice that pacoloco hangs indefinitely when the db sig files are requested of it. That would seem to be causing the lag issue. By comparison a few mirrors that I tried gave quick 404 responses
Pacoloco:
$ curl https://my-pacoloco-server/repo/archlinux/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.sig > extra.db.sig
