Pacman slow in Arch, but fast in Ubuntu
Hello
I searched among Pacman related topics on this forum, but I didn't find anything related to problem I have. It takes Pacman very long time to download many small files. Bandwidth isn't the case, but the time it takes Pacman to start downloading next package. My average ping to http://mir.archlinux.fr is about 70ms. When Pacman completes downloading packageN there's a few second lag till it will start downloading packageN+1. There's no such lag when I run Arch Linux in Ubuntu under KVM and using the same mirror.
PS. I have ipv6 disabled.

Have you set up /etc/hosts properly?

Yes, browsing the web is very fast. My hosts file:
