The release method could be changed so that the only way to get a new release via the first couple days is using BitTorrent. This would probably eliminate the initial load spike that the mirrors get. If a few of the mirrors can be convinced to seed the torrent, things would be even nicer. -- Nicholas Miell <nmiell@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
