[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello!
In brazil the download of the system is incredibly slow, I tried using different DNS and even tor with curl, none of it work.
The speed is B/s for me, the highest speed was 100Kb/s for some seconds

From what URL was the download slow?

Hm, that's too bad! Really slow!

ftpmirror.gnu.org does use a system of mirrors, which includes some
servers in Brazil (and also in Ecuador):

https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.en.html

If these local mirrors are not selected automatically, you could try
using them directly. If that doesn't work, you could try other mirrors
until you find one that is fast enough.

Closing the issue as not actionable by us; I understand the problem,
but do not see a solution we could implement.
