Hi,
ftp connects way slower than http, especially for lots of small files, since it has to connect back to the client each time.
Since I don't see any benefit over http and ftp is old, I propose to remove all the ftp mirrors from the default mirror list.
+1 from me, but can you elaborate on what you mean by "default"? I can think of any of the following, want to make sure we are on the same page: * pacman-mirrorlist package * install ISO mirrorlist (completely omitted, or simply commented out?) * unchecking FTP by default at https://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/ -Dan
