From the _MIRROR_-side using hardlinks should be fine enough, we'd just |
7 |
have to ensure that every mirror uses -H (preserve hardlinks). And for |
8 |
the mirrors not using -H this will just result in increased traffic and |
9 |
diskusage (42GB at the moment, might hurt a bit ;) ). Shouldn't be a |
10 |
problem though ensuring that every mirror uses -H (and I think they |
11 |
already do, since we already did hardlink magic when moving old releases |
12 |
to historical) |

I guess the more complicated part will be adapting the ebuild system to |
15 |
look for/store the files in the new location. |
