Yes, this tends to happen at release time when everyone and their dog
wants to download the latest release at the same time. CentOS 5.10 was
released just recently and it's currently being synced to mirrors. It
may still take a day or two until all the bits have been pushed through
to all the mirrors.
eu-msync.centos.org and others are actually round-robin DNS names for a
number of CentOS msync servers. Although there are multiple msync
servers, the number of mirrors pulling from them is far greater, and the
msync servers may have problems keeping up with the load in these
situations.
If some of you are in a position to donate an additional server and its
hosting to the CentOS project, I'm sure that would help. Gigabit speeds
would be really neat nowadays. See http://wiki.centos.org/Donate for
more info and contact details.
