Nope. So far it's using about 350GB on a 750GB disk. We've been using
FC6, F9 and F10 on i386 and x86_64, plus updates.

Not really, but I like being able to manage the data store manually if
I wanted to. When the day finally comes that the 750GB is exhausted,
I'll ssh to the mirrors box and type a couple of rm -rf's to free up
some space and then forget about it for another year.

I don't plan to hack on the code much myself, as it already works just
fine for me. But I'm happy to host the code somewhere and help
integrate patches if other people come up with improvements.

IIRC you came up with the name InstantMirror; you're welcome to reuse it.
