Hi We are tier 1 mirror for openoffice, mysql, several linux distributions and many other open source projects and we are aware of our i/o problem on our current ftp/rsync/http mirror. All rsync and cvsup processes generating a lot of i/o and high cpu load in generall but especially at 6-7 (UTC +2) in the morning. The fact that this machine is also nearly full with almost 2 tb of data (95% of diskspace) is not helping to reduce the i/o problem. It was never planned to use this machine as a ftp mirror but a major hardware crash forced us to do so. This machine is underpowered. It just a backup system running inside a jail. We are sorry but I'm pretty sure our performance problems should be fixed at the end of next week with our new hardware (much faster cpu, much more diskspace, standalone machine).
