just mentioning, that the disadvantage to urpmi-proxy, is that it hides 
connection errors to repositories, since it will use cache if it fails. you 
can look at the logfile if it mentions HIT_AFTER_FAIL (which means it gets you 
cache after it failed)

lately, i've been testing with 2 repositories and changing the timeout value 
to very low values (5s)

as first repos, i choose one that is fast, and as second repos, i use what is 
always up2date. considering MD5SUM would be asked for both repositories (it's 
a specially configured file for that), it would get you always up2date results, 
since the first would fail to have the file and the second one would be asked 
for it.

for me, this gave alot better results especially for cauldron during the mass 
rebuild...
