Well whats the point of the round robin? To distribute load between the two boxes, and cover fail over?
To save bandwidth from everyone's point of view I think it would be better to sync one from msync, and sync the other one from the first one. What does everyone else think?

I could sync one from the other, but that kinda defeats the round robin point.
