anacron, when local load average are low (when you're asleep), on demand, etc.? This will enable you to make a baseline when each mirror is not so congested, and use that mirror when you want do rsync. He he..., I don't know..., let's skip 3.) for now and focus on the other issues :) Some perl hacker could probably make this work, maybe even Troels himself?
