But I agree with you that could be a frustration for someone trying OE-core for the first time ;-) > Try adding this to your configuration: >=20 > PREMIRRORS =3D "\ > git://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \n \ > svn://.*/.* http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/ \n" >=20 > and see if that helps the performance.

I think fetching from git or svn should not be the first thing to do in recipes like gcc, eglibc, linux & co where we are based on a stable released version : this doesn't bring real added value to the user in OE context and this wastes bandwidth (a tbz2 kernel is around 75MB, a git one is around 600MB).
