Would that work with our up-to-the-second articles, or is it for
large, static files only?
Maybe we should set up an optional torrent for the db-dumps? It doesnt
seem like a bad idea. I mean it can't hurt, itakes just a second to set
up and in case a couple of people are downloading the dumps at the same
time it could be useful and save some bandwidth. even if it is not our
main concern to save bandwidth, it never hurts.
We have plenty of bandwidth on
wikipedia.org, and most people who
are going to download don't ave that much, so it's going to only worsen
situation.
