Related to the heads up about rolling updates for the upcoming release: Have you investigated speeding up your main rsync servers? ftp.acc.umu.se syncs from stage.opensuse.org, and we are seeing sync-times in excess of 24 hours at times. Sync-bandwidth on our end is limited to 1 Gbps, but the speeds we are getting are much lower so we suspect that the upstream server is the bottleneck. If you can't increase the performance of the main rsync server it might be beneficial to investigate a tiered approach where a few select primary high-bandwidth mirrors sync from the master site and the rest sync from the closest primary mirror. This is the way Debian has been doing it for quite some time with great success. /Nikke -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Niklas Edmundsson, Admin @ {acc,hpc2n}.umu.se | nikke@acc.umu.se --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I parked my harddisk - and got a ticket! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mirror+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: mirror+owner@opensuse.org
