Thanks for the response.

Out of curiosity based on your responses, technically, how would you
describe csup to be faster than cvsup with a properly configured
supfile over a 100Mbps Internet connection?

Understand I'm not being disrespectful, I truly want to know how/why
it's faster.

Is it a coding thing? AFAICT, all it does is diff files that one has
and download the changes, right?

Or is it just because it's in the base now? (I haven't tried to see if
it's in the base, but from what I know now, it is ;)
