How does Debian repository distribute load during peaks?
Where/how is this documented?
Consider the case when many users may specify the same URL in sources.list .
If they all try to install packages at the same time there could be
problems. How does a particular user know which physical server provided a
particular package?
I have a problem that could be explained by different users receiving
packages from different servers. My web searches and other posts have been
futile. I need background information to be able to ask an answerable
question.
Appropriate documentation URL?
TIA
deb.debian.org is a distributed network of mirrors based on geolocation
It should be absolutely immaterial which server provided which package
logs may tell you which mirror apt-get queried.
