That's indeed the case. See e.g.

Any slower mirror, or mirror not able to push that many bits a month,
will cause slow downloads for a fraction of Tails users.

On the other hand, as Tobias highlighted, we've got plans for
weighting mirrors, and once this is done, then we can take advantage
even of slower ones :)

Thanks for considering hosting a Tails mirror!

Cheers,
