+# Yocto Project SState Mirror
+#
+# The Yocto Project has prebuilt artefacts available for its releases, you can enable
+# by enabling the following config fragment. This will mean the build uses the network to 
+# check for artefacts at the start of builds, which does slow it down initially but it 
+# will then speed up the builds by not having to build things if they are present in the 
+# cache. It assumes you can download something faster than you can build it which will 
+# depend on your network.
