The improvement is great for the full CD....
Well, from that it does seem that SFS is viable in Japan. It is less clear that just having a server in the US would speed things up in the US. It could well be that Japan has a better infrastructure. The US is certainly playing catch-up in many areas, I don't know if just having a US server would speed up SFS for all US users. Maybe it would, but I do have doubts. We also have a great ability to overload what servers we do have (just look at the US Knoppix mirrors). So if SFS was speed viable in this country we might then move on to the problem of it being too sucessful, and everything grinding to a halt. An SFS server on the local netwirk still strikes me as the best way to go, but I'll certainly acknowledge this is an outsiders viewpoint, while I've been following the discussions on SFS I have not tried to use it.
