Just had this idea pop up in my mind. Instead of relying on volunteers mirroring package repositories all around the world, why not utilise BitTorrent protocol to move at the very least some some load unto the users and thus increase download speeds as well as decrease latency?
At least Kali and Arch do
Doesn’t Arch rely on mirrors to distribute packages?
You’re right - I misunderstood the question and thought you meant the distribution images
