I have 3 mirrors in my list, and up until yesterday all were being
picked up (except for the onion, where I still need clearer advice on how
to configure this - my current advice is to replicate the hydra build

'guix pull' round 1: 8 hours, round 2: ~12 hours, round 3: ~4 hours.
None of them succeded.
