The speed is all down to CloudFlare, I have managed to get the cache ratio nice and high so very little traffic actually comes from Australia
So the only mirror from 30 who use cloud servers?

May be it should not be noted as Australian then: it is misleading info.
Perhaps we need to introduce new value for origin something like cloud (origin: Australia) or any other payload and useful sort of.
If the provider of said mirror is located in Australia, the mirror has been created as community service to Australian community - even if it uses a cloud service to host the mirror then it is correct to specify Australia as mirror country.
There is not need to create further filters or descriptions.
The Global entry was created when cdn77 mirror was created and the name was to specifically signify the Global audience.
