Hi,

we're mirroring CPAN via rsync here too. As merlyn already pointed out, you need at least 1,3GB of free space NOW. I'd recomend at least 2.0GB as CPAN is growing and you need some overhead for logs etc.

arkab:/space/scrap/mirrors # du -s cpan 1290032 cpan
As for the time one needs for rsyncing: It's very fast. With a 2MBit line you need about 70minutes for the initial fetch. The updates are rsynced in about 5 minutes (or less) each.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
