### What did you do?
I visited https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/gmlewis/go-fonts@v0.16.0 multiple times over the course of about 15 minutes, each time asking for an update.
Eventually, that URL no longer said that that version couldn't be found, but instead started redirecting to the page with the old version.
### What did you expect to see?
The latest version.
### What did you see instead?
The old version.

According to https://proxy.golang.org/github.com/gmlewis/go-fonts/@v/list
proxy.golang.org knows only up to v0.0.13. Pkg.go.dev only learns about module versions through proxy.golang.org, so it is working as intended.
From the proxy's log, I see that proxy.golang.org keeps failing on this repo for unknown reasons.

Indeed, it seems to be a problem with the origin server.

So it seems the upstream git fetch and git archive operations for this repo are so slow that they exceed the timeouts of the sumdb and the proxy. FWIW, the repo contains almost 1GB of font data and very little Go code.
Comment From: seankhliao
is this the 500MB limit for proxy.golang.org?
Comment From: adonovan
Seems like sumdb is the bottlenneck, but it could be for a similar reason. I don't know, but I bet @suzmue does.
Comment From: suzmue
sum.golang.org and proxy.golang.org have the same limits and issues.
It appears that the proxy is not able to even successfully download the module in order to check the 500MB limit, but does seem that this has to do with the size as the fetch uses a lot of memory / takes a long time in the proxy's fetch environment.
Comment From: rsc
I looked into this.
The repo itself is 1.2 GB after git clone --depth=1; 385 MB is the .git directory and 815 MB is the actual content.
The limit on the uncompressed size of an individual module is 500 MB (500<<20 bytes).
I see that there are many modules in this repo and each is small, but we also have to impose some limit on how large a git repo we are willing to download to get a module. It seems reasonable to me to say that this repo is too large. The solution would be to break it up into multiple modules.
Apologies, @gmlewis.
Comment From: gmlewis
Thank you, everyone, who looked into this issue!
I really appreciate your effort and I'm sorry for the enormity of the repo. I will break it up. That might be a cleaner solution anyway.
Closing with apologies.
