It's worth at least setting up annon rsync, because it means that the data does not get run through ssh at each end, thus saving CPU cycles and 10% (or more) of the bandwidth. For restricting usage, the rsync server does allow challenge/response authentication as well, so we could give the password to official mirrors, and that would be the end of the administration problem.
