I know this has come up before, but what if you also added a few overloaded A records for those who want to spread the load automatically, and do it in a somewhat random way. So in addition to all the current A records, what if you added cvsuprandom IN A 198.182.76.7 cvsuprandom IN A 209.221.148.132 and so on... And you could suggest people to use this if they dont care which cvsup server they want ? ---Mike At 12:54 PM 11/17/00 -0800, John Polstra wrote: >With FreeBSD-4.2 being released in a few days, we can expect the usual >big increase in the load on the CVSup mirror sites.
