Hi all,
I've mirrored CentOS (http://centos.alteeve.com), initially to be a local mirror for our DC. I've been thinking about making it publicly available, but I was concerned about the load it might place on the server. I remember seeing somewhere an estimate on the bandwidth to expect, but I seem to fail at Google and can't find that again.
So, first question; If I become a public mirror on a server with a 100Mbit connection, will my uplink likely become saturated?
Second question; with regards to locking to prevent rsync calls from overstepping one another, what do most people do? The docs said to ask here. :)
Cheers!

Thanks! I'll adapt/use that script. I was wondering if there was a canned solution, but that looks perfectly reasonable.
As for bandwidth, I've been planning to move on to the gbit network at the DC, I'll try to do that soon, then I'll go public. At that point, my disk i/o becomes the bottle neck. :)
