I would recommend editing the configuration file under =/etc/apt-proxy/= to add a nz server as first choice as it can be slow getting updates from the US at times.
If you have problems with this then there is also apt-cacher that you can use.

+!Problem: apt-proxy stalls fetching headers
+Your clients connect to the proxy fine but don't seem to get any data. They sit there forever waiting for headers:
+<verbatim>
+# apt-get update
+0% [Waiting for headers]
+</verbatim>
+
+In your =/etc/apt-proxy/apt-proxy-v2.conf= file, try disabling HTTP pipelining. Uncomment the line if necessary and set the value to 1:
+<verbatim>
+disable_pipelining=1
+</verbatim>
+It has been enabled by default since version 1.9.34 but still seems to be broken in the version currently in etch (1.9.35-0.3)
