# A plugin for the Yellowdog Updater Modified which sorts each repo's
# mirrorlist by connection speed prior to download.
#
# To install this plugin, just drop it into /usr/lib/yum-plugins, and
# make sure you have 'plugins=1' in your /etc/yum.conf.  You also need to
# create the following configuration file, if not installed through an RPM:
#
#  /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf:
#   [main]
#   enabled=1
#   verbose=1
#   socket_timeout=3
#   hostfilepath=timedhosts
#   maxhostfileage=10
#   maxthreads=15
#   #exclude=.gov, facebook
#   #include_only=.nl,.de,.uk,.ie
