-In order to download source code quickly it is recommended to select a fast
-mirror. Portage will look in your <path>make.conf</path> file for the
-GENTOO_MIRRORS variable and use the mirrors listed therein. You can surf to
-our <uri link="/main/en/mirrors.xml">mirror list</uri> and search
-for a mirror (or mirrors) close to you (as those are most frequently the
-fastest ones), but we provide a nice tool called <c>mirrorselect</c> which
-provides you with a nice interface to select the mirrors you want.

-<pre caption="Using mirrorselect for the GENTOO_MIRRORS variable">

-Do not select any IPv6 mirrors. Our stages currently do not support IPv6.

-A second important setting is the SYNC setting in <path>make.conf</path>. This
-variable contains the rsync server you want to use when updating your Portage
-tree (the collection of ebuilds, scripts containing all the information Portage
-needs to download and install software). Although you can manually enter a SYNC
-server for yourself, <c>mirrorselect</c> can ease that operation for you:
