Torrents, and an offer to mirror (Score:2)

Have you considered torrents as one of many options? I suppose you'll lose the download statistics.

Also, I'd be happy to set up a North American mirror, which means actually that I give you an account and you set up a North American mirror however you like (or, I guess, you tell me how you want it set up and I do that without giving you an account).

  Torrents probably aren't worth it for a 17MB file.
  
  However, once we get some notional "Perl and CPAN on a Stick" 800MB package, then torrenting is absolutely the option I need.
  
  Maybe even for Chocolate, but I really hope it is no bigger than 50MB.
