Yes.

No real logging info, but there is <http://mirror-status.centos.org/>
which shows if you are lagging or not. We do not keep performance logs
though (how should we?).

We are using mirmon (from the same machine all the time), which does not
do performance or download monitoring. Based from the host's currency on
that list, the (location based) mirrorlists are created.
