   The SuSE repository infrastructure is managed pretty badly. According my   
   experience, they use a completely stupid round robin mechanism, pointing to   
   servers around the world. I often can see here Russian(!) servers.   
      
   Therefore, first thing I always do, is to replace all download.suse.org URLs   
   with   
   fast "direct" URLs located nearby for each repository.
