I'll also jump on board this - http-replicator works great. You build |
| 2 |
it from your existing distfile cache. You do not need the large mirror |
| 3 |
files as many, or rather most are unlikely ever to be accessed. Build |
| 4 |
it with what you already have, and just top it up as you go - if the |
| 5 |
file isnt already in your cache, its added when you download it. |
