I'm now using the one in ftp-master's rsync MOTD. Nothing special
about it, other than refusing the things that I can do better locally
or don't have space for. I added `-s' and `-l' flags (see the man
page) to speed things up and prevent multiple invocations from
stepping on each other.

This is not an issue for cvsup.

The biggest part of the problem is that there are a lot of expanded
source trees in the FTP space because they were always there, even
though much better means exist for accessing those files. These
should simply be removed.
The meat of the six-hour update script looks like this:
su -m $mirroruser -c "cvsup -g -L 1 -l ${tmpdir}/lock.ftp-master.freebsd.org ${sflag} /y/mirror/ftp-master.freebsd.org" 2>&1 | egrep -v '/$' >${logfile}.0 &
su -m $mirroruser -c "sleep 120; cvsup -g -L 1 ${sflag} ${ftpdir}/pub/FreeBSD/branches/4.0-stable/supfile.cvsup" >${logfile}.2 2>&1 &
su -m $mirroruser -c "sleep 180; cvsup -g -L 1 ${sflag} ${ftpdir}/pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/supfile.cvsup" >${logfile}.3 2>&1 &
wait
