Note that the Bonsai and LXR web sites are running off the master
repository (cvs.gnome.org) and you are probably using an anonymous
mirror which updates once a day or so.

That said, some of the mirrors appear to suck. They have bad
connections or don't sync often enough or something. 

If you find a good one, you can always hardcode its IP in your
CVSROOT.
