Oh...I'm responsible for a few megabytes' worth of that today...

Suggestion: at the top of pages like
  http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/egcs.html
put a jump to the list of mirrors, with an attention-getting
caption like "for faster downloads..." Now that I look there, I
see Jeremy Bettis's Omaha mirror has a T1 link, and so may be a
lot quicker than wisc.edu . I'll use Omaha in future.
