But you have to take into account, that AnonCVS may consume lot of resources on your server. A checkout creates a temporary shadow directory tree, that may slow things down seriously. Check the archives for postings on this list describing the setup of a MFS for a tempdir for that shadow tree. You should have plenty of memory anyway. For demand I'm not sure. The last three weeks anoncvs.de.freebsd.org received ~800 individual connections requesting cvs. Of course one host/update often cause much more than one connection. But, we also serve OpenBSD and NetBSD, and I cannot tell from the logs, which repository was accessed. However, I guess there is demand, but it's not huge. And CVSup is probably preferred over AnonCVS...
