Under normal circumstances, CVS to rsync runs every half hour, with up |
| 9 |
to an hour and a half(?)'s lag depending upon which rsync mirror you |
| 10 |
use. As for commits, most of us are European or American, so there're a |
| 11 |
few hours in the day (~UTC0500) when things are really quiet, but apart |
| 12 |
from that there's no real timing. |
