The Installation Process of Eclipse is taking long time to get installed.
It is giving me some kind of error or notification like:
Artifact Download is progressing very slowly from the following hosts
The Installation Process is taking longer than usual
and it auto detects Java but ask for Java folder location and it sometimes does not even respond.
I am running Windows 11 OS

The installer uses the following approach (which is different from p2's default, which blindly uses the first 4 listed mirrors). It sorts all the artifacts from smallest to largest, then partitions the list to move largest to the middle and the medium sized ones toward the end. Then it uses all the mirrors for the smallest artifacts first, measuring how fast each one is, and because they are small, getting that information relatively quickly so as to avoid using slow mirrors for large artifacts. I.e., it will use mirrors according to which ones were measured to be the fastest. I know it's happen to me more than once that one slow mirror for one small artifact uses more time than all the other downloads combined. So there isn't a perfect automatic solution. But I also don't plan to surface a list of mirrors for the users to choose. Each site potentially has a different set of mirrors and the user isn't likely to know which is fast just by looking the names, and that speed is likely to vary over time. But it is open source, so if you want to work on contributing something like that, you could...
