I was actually surprised to see cvsup faster at the time. Speed isn't of
paramount importance here - one doesn't exclude the other from being used.
The 'best' choice is probably the one that is easiest to set up, most
widely available, and the most well-documented. That will probably be
rsync in the near future.
Interestingly, I was just looking at a tool at my workplace that uses
rsync for daily backups from a good number of systems (~350 or so). Its
biggest impact was in terms of processing power, especially on the server.
As Garance said, the effect on the mirroring host is also important.
