Extremely satisfied Alpine user and new poster here.

I've been using Alpine with Docker for personal and professional projects and found I needed a lightweight, dependency-free way of finding a fast APK mirror, so I made this thing: https://github.com/padthaitofuhot/apkfastestmirror

It's one 100% pure BusyBox-flavored ash script, MIT-licensed, about 10kb, does one thing well, and does its best to follow the Alpine philosophy.

alpine:~# wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/padthaitofuhot/apkfastestmirror/master/apkfastestmirror.sh
alpine:~# ash ./apkfastestmirror.sh --install
Installing to /usr/local/bin/apkfastestmirror
Generating /etc/apk/apkfastestmirror.conf
alpine:~#

Feel free to use it, fork it, hate it, love it, or whatever you please with it.

Cheers!
