It has nothing to do with the Squeak image. Rsnapshot/rsync do the job and I would be very surprised if it has any noticeable effect on the system, it has none on the community server.

You backup squeaksource.com? How is that done? If you make that poor Squeak image transfer 2 GB a day that would certainly help to explain some of the performance problems squeaksource.com has been having lately.

My question way more do you download all the .mcz versions through http (which makes the squeaksource image serve them) or do you use ssh to copy them from the local disc of the squeaksource server?
