I was wondering the other day about the feasibility of setting up some kind of
load meter for the various cvsup servers, so people could determine the best
one to use and share the load a bit more. Perhaps this could even be taken a
step further and cvsup could choose the optimal server for you based on
an end-to-end network bandwidth metric and the server load.
I'm sure there are many people who aren't using the optimal server for their
network location.
