Please post your testimonials (and only that, I will delete everything else in here to keep it clean) in this thread! IE: give an approximate amount of sources you used to have, and how long it take to start installer; as well as how many sources you currently have, and how long it takes to start installer.

Thanks!

Personal case study.
This is my personalized source:
http://repo.sc/TTS (39.3 KB)

It gathers 23 packages (as of time of writing) from the following 7 sources:
http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/ (52.38K)
http://psmxy.org.nyud.net/iphone-apps/repo.cache (453.06K)
http://touchrepo.com/repo.xml (118.18K )
http://applerepo.com (117.5K)
http://mobilestack.googlecode.com/sv...internal.plist (13.24K)
http://hpcgi3.nifty.com/moyashi/ipod...repository.cgi (60.51K)
http://touchmods.net/rep.xml (2.79K)

I've removed them sources from my installer as shown above (as I no longer need them), and my installer now loads 39.3KB as oppose to over 800Kb. Meaning, I am effectively downloading lesser than 5% of what I'd usually download! Thanks, repo.sc! (oh, wait isn't this my own site? :P

Alright i just installed everything into my repo. It took just over 15 seconds. I know this because. . .i filmed it. Sorry for the horrible quality, it's a webcam

. But it's somewhat readable.

P.S. Don't use a webcam for video's

Dude, this is awesome! I went from a lot of sources (about a 10 minute refresh) to about 25 sources ( remarkably fast refresh, only about 40 seconds). Nice work! Keep adding sources so my refresh time will decrease!

Edit: Ive been having fun refreshing now, I did it over and over and on average im getting a 45s refresh time. :P
