This means, little CPU load (apache + SSI), little RAM load, bandwidth
depending on number of total mirrors.

The files which need to be mirrored total 17 GB. If needed, this amount
can be reduced in some cases.

I assume 2 or 3 times as much traffic as we have usually, so the total
traffic across all mirror servers for these static files should be about
800 GB to 1200 GB maximum. I assume we will have 4 mirrors minimum in
the end, so, based on these calculations, the theoretical maximum
traffic per mirror server will be 300 GB which is less than 1 Mbit/sec
across a month.

I hope this information is accurate. Please feel free to correct me.
