No, this is not about the speed (primarily). Just about the quality of data published via the protocol. For example, with rsync I can be sure that timestamps are okay, for example. With ftp it usually works too, but http is not so good and there is possibility that I might end up re-downloading the same content again and again just because http might fail to advertise mtime change (or no change, to be precise). Over the years I switched all my mirrors to rsync from initial ftp (or http) just because of this. > I can see the point. I also think a fast diff for mirroring is nice. I'll Thanks.
