Also might help to incrementally sync as things are built ?
I believe we still want to test things out a bit before the packages are made public. So, pushing things out immediately after they've been built might not be appropriate. When the packages hit CR, they've already been tested a bit by the QA team.
An addition to my previous idea -- when upstream releases the new release and we know which packages get updated, we could copy the previous release's unchanged packages to the new release's os tree immediately. This would also spread the load a bit.
rsync's -H flag would mean that the well-behaving mirrors would need to transfer only a tiny bit of data at that point. However, there are also mirrors that don't use the -H flag. Those mirrors would need to download a few gigabytes of data each at this stage.
