+just mentioning, that the disadvantage to urpmi-proxy, is that it hides 
+connection errors to repositories, since it will use cache if it fails. you 
+can look at the logfile if it mentions HIT_AFTER_FAIL (which means it gets you 
+cache after it failed)
+
+lately, i've been testing with 2 repositories and changing the timeout value 
+to very low values (5s)
+
+as first repos, i choose one that is fast, and as second repos, i use what is 
+always up2date. considering MD5SUM would be asked for both repositories (it's 
+a specially configured file for that), it would get you always up2date results, 
+since the first would fail to have the file and the second one would be asked 
+for it.
+
+for me, this gave alot better results especially for cauldron during the mass 
+rebuild...
