What worries me about that is when files start to get much bigger than
100MB, or a bunch are added at once (think 2 day conference with a
dozen or more hour long talks), when they get uploaded to the ftp
site, within a 24 hour window we'll get around 100 mirrors all trying
to rsync them at once - probably far more bandwidth than people
actually viewing the stuff!

We have plenty of spare hardware atm (we have 4 new boxes coming
online at the moment with very good connectivity) - we can easily
setup a dedicated server for this, or I kinda like Marc's YouTube
idea.
