It is a question what to test. You are right that I see rsync timeouts
much more, that cvsup timeouts. Maybe you can try to increase --timeout=n
on the client side. I had to set timeout = 15000 on the server, so you can
try to go up to this time on the client side too. I think that you can
switch directly from rsync to cvsup, because cvsup checks all files
physically during first run (first run of cvsup is even worse that
rsync runs, its gain is only with repeated runs). Then it is good idea
to check the repository using cvsupchk for deletion of extra files not
controlled by cvsup.

Good news, I have prepared one SATA 3ware RAID 8506-12 with six 320 GB
disks on the desk. I hope that I would be able to switch to the new RAID
during this weekend, so please do not be surprised,
if ftp-master.cz.freebsd.org will be inaccessible for some time.
Currently, all hosts seem to be up to date and the load of the server
is minimal.

Regards.
