All the gory details of how we do our backups for over 100 remote
servers every night, in under 5 hours, with daily snapshots going back
just shy of 6 months (average size of the daily snapshots is 10 GB).

If we had 10 Mbps symmetrical connections to our remote sites instead
of 2.0/0.5 Mbps ADSL, we could probably drop the backup time to an
hour.  :)

If there's anything missing from there that you would like to know, just
ask.  :)
