+# FreeBSD switched to a Geo-IP-based load-balanced distcache.
+# Note that FreeBSD's pkg(8) utility does not just stupidly
+# download via HTTP, but issues DNS queries to fetch
+# SRV records and compute the "best" available server
+# given some weighting criteria.
+# It probably doesn't matter a bunch, though, and plain
+# DNS lookups and HTTP requests are fine.
