I had similar problems as well when I worked for TI UK, it turned out to be proxy end point issues. After manually assigning an endpoint that was close by things improved a lot. The geo-ip based CDNs worked properly from then on. 
It might be that github suck in the UK, I only have one datapoint for the gcc stuff, which is my own connection at home. I only need to fetch gcc once, so I don't have a strong opinion on this switch, I just wanted to add some anecdotal evidence that the 1.3gb git download isn't all bad :)

Koen
