Comment (by ryandesign):

 Replying to [comment:9 ryandesign]:
 > 4. MacPorts base could have a hard upper limit of the number of hosts
 for which it will check ping times at a time, say 50 or 100. If there are
 more hosts than that such as in the case of perl, MacPorts could pick 50
 or 100 hosts from the list at random (although maybe the MacPorts mirrors
 should always be included). Ideally any excess hosts that were not checked
 would be marked for immediate recheck, so that if a user upgrades several
 perl modules at once then for the first module maybe not all hosts were
 pinged but by the second or third module all of the pingtimes are known.
