 > Saying that turned out to be a great way to cause a
 [https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.6_i386-builder/builds/13373
 kernel panic] to happen. :) At least I assume that's what happened. No
 panic log was generated.

 I guess it needs a good trim then? (ie option 1)

 I'm sitting and updading the `mirror_sites.tcl` at the moment… Just did
 the cpan. Through their list of mirrirs, and just picking the http(s)
 sites as before, there are ≈ 30 fewer now.

 I saw they also have a [http://mirrors.cpan.org status page], with misc
 reports/probes - like “hangs”. I've removed few of the bad ones.
