I use gitup with git.freebsd.org and it connects to gitmir.pkt.freebsd.org which is in Netherlands. My servers are in Germany and I get good speed.

portsnap uses "AWS Global Accelerator" and while I use it I was getting good speeds too.

I am not familiar with freebsd-update as I build from source, but update.freebsd.org points to update1.freebsd.org , update2.freebsd.org and update4.freebsd.org which are not in Europe. Does any freebsd-update mirror exist in Europe?
