mirro-rs – mirrorlist manager for Arch Linux systems

mirro-rs provides a TUI to help you better visualise managing your mirrorlist.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Sorting:
    • Completion – The number of mirror checks (as a percentage) that have successfully connected and disconnected from the given URL. If this is below 100%, the mirror may be unreliable.
    • Score – It is currently calculated as (hours delay + average duration + standard deviation) / completion percentage. Lower is better.
    • Standard deviation – The standard deviation of the connect and retrieval time. A high standard deviation can indicate an unstable or overloaded mirror.
    • Delay – The mean value of last check − last sync for each check of this mirror URL. Due to the timing of mirror checks, any value under one hour should be viewed as ideal.
    • Rate – sort by download speed
  • Filtering:
    • Age.
    • Country.
    • ipv4, ipv6, isos.
    • Protocol – http, https, ftp or rsync.
    • Completion Percentage.
