This is my main concern. Normally sync 4 times a day is enough to keep your your mirror up to date.
That is 4 times a day.
Yes, this is 4 times, but the 18 & 23 seems rush hour to me, as per experience. But you can say better then me as you have deal with a lot of country.
Also as you are in Brazil, Timezone is vital here. so I will suggest you to update your cron entry like bellow:
15 1,6,18,22 * * * rsync -aqzH --delete-after us-msync.centos.org::CentOS /var/www/html/centos/
Why should timezone be "vital"?
Here is an misunderstanding. I was trying to say Timezone is vital to create a cron entry. Non only in Brazil, all over the world.
The main issue is to use idle time both you and from where you are miring. Find out a good mirror near you and change 'us-msync.centos.org::CentOS .
As Brazil is near to us-msync.centos.org, I suggest her/him to use us-msync and us-msync has a big pool of server & bandwidth. Also advice her to find out a good mirror near her/him and change it to that server.
No. Absolutely do *NOT* do that, msync.centos.org hands out mirrors accordingly to where you are. Do not try to only hit one mirror, please.
Thanks for your opinion, I might be wrong. But as you run and work with a lot of timezone and country, sure you have better knowledge then me. Thanks again for your clarification.
