If we were to be completely assured the package is on a mirror local to the
submitter, we'd have to wait the amount of time it takes for their nearest
mirror to get updated, which ranges from a few hours to never. Several days
would be a pretty rough estimate...
(BTW from what I've seen, the push mirrored archives get updated within six
hours after the time dinstall ends.)
