Ok, I want to do a good test. So, I need some days
yet, about one or two weeeks, the CVSup and rsync
mirrors that I will test they are:

1) chlamydia.fs.ei.tum.de
2) AllBSD.org
3) TheShell.com

My intention about test is the following:

You may want to test partial updates - i.e. test an update from 1.6 to 1.7. There may be a speed difference in the way the two programs do the update checks, as compared to downloading all the files at once.

Yes, this is probably the most useful test since I expect that this is the most common usage. If one needs to go from scratch there are tar- balls of the source that can be downloaded and then cvsup/rsync can be used to get to latest.


But don't let that stop you from testing going from scratch also.
