yaourt -Syu only downloads between 50-100k from archlinux.org now. It's been this way for a couple of weeks and makes big updates a serious pain. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I've switched to gatech mirror as a temporary workaround, but I hope that the main FTP will be back up to speed soon.

The main ftp is throttled to 50kb/s intentionally. You're not supposed to use it as your main download mirror.
Pacman-Mirror
Choose a mirror repository for pacman.
* archlinux.org is throttled, limiting downloads to 50KB/s
Return to the main menu.
Also, if you want to maximize your download speed, take a look at powerpill in my sig.

it's throttled so you'd find better speeds using a different mirror.
oops, xyne pushed submit faster than me!
