We're still exploring available options and collecting data imacat. Right now an existing ooo mirror operator has reported to us that his average bandwidth consumption for ooo was ~100Mbps. It would help us to know how many mirrors support the existing mirrorbrain service for ooo to get a guess as to what the impact would be for Apache mirrors, but we are anticipating similar bandwidth requirements for our mirrors given the available data.
What we currently need are estimates related to peak downloads during the initial few days / weeks of a release. Anyone with historical data on this needs to step forward and share it ASAP- 300K strikes me as an off-peak figure at this point. ----- Original Message ----- > From: imacat <ima...@mail.imacat.idv.tw> > To: Apache OpenOffice Developers <ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org> > Cc: > Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2012 3:14 PM > Subject: Re: Sourceforge and AOO 3.4 distribution > > Please correct me if I'm wrong.
