Memory is not such a big problem for cvsup. It seems to me that it is more about updating policy (when update and what - it would need short cvsup runs with releases/packages before checking cvsupped source trees...), than about prepared cvsup collections. Anybody can do similar splitting by use of -i flag/refuse file with cvsup, but everything needs maintenance, including cvsup collections. > May I add the suggestion of publicizing somewhere(s) exactly when the > ports get updated?

I think that most critical is situation, when there are updated files on ftp-master and everybody wants to mirror them, so we do not need to solve situation, when anybody runs cvsup when there is nothing new for him.

I could be mistaken I'm not sure, if I understand correctly, but do you know about exclude option in rsyncd.conf directly in module specification? -- Rudolf Cejka <cejkar at fit.vutbr.cz> http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/~cejkar Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information Technology Bozetechova 2, 612 66 Brno, Czech Republic
