Portsnap uses a new network of http servers (although it could intersect
with existing www servers).  Building this network isn't likely to be a
problem: With the two servers currently in use, roughly 30000 users can
be supported (based on very conservative extrapolation of the existing
bandwidth and cpu load), and I've already had three other mirrors offered.
