The 10Gbit uplink of my university, directly connected to the internet, not
behind a proxy. I don't think that's the problem. When update3 was still online
I'd always use that and updates were really fast back then.

Now that update3 is gone all update servers seem to be in the US or Australia.

After waiting for nearly one hour:

..8530....8540....8550....8560....8570....8580....8590....8600....8610....8620....8630....8640....8650....8660....8670....8680....8690....8700....  done.
Applying patches... done.
Fetching 9628 files... gunzip: (stdin): unexpected end of file
0a4626107f3700cf5f87bd9c123bf427bd5a8561aadc2eca1d1605465c090935 has incorrect hash.

This is getting kind of tiresome. :(
