How
much would our storage needs increase by needing to keep all RPM's around on the mirrors?
For Fedora 8, per arch, at this moment that would be:
$ du -sch fedora-unity/releases/8/Everything/x86_64/ \ fedora-unity/updates/8/x86_64/
19G fedora-unity/releases/8/Everything/x86_64/ 5.0G fedora-unity/updates/8/x86_64/ 24G total
minus the updates in the normal tree already:
$ du -sch fedora/releases/8/Everything/x86_64/ fedora/updates/8/x86_64/ 19G fedora/releases/8/Everything/x86_64/ 3.9G fedora/updates/8/x86_64/ 23G total
For Fedora 7, per arch, that'd be:
$ du -sch fedora-unity/releases/7/Everything/x86_64/ \ fedora-unity/updates/7/x86_64/
16G fedora-unity/releases/7/Everything/x86_64/ 18G fedora-unity/updates/7/x86_64/ 34G total
again minus the updates in the tree already:
$ du -sch fedora/releases/7/Everything/x86_64/ fedora/updates/7/x86_64/ 16G fedora/releases/7/Everything/x86_64/ 13G fedora/updates/7/x86_64/ 28G total
So, roughly, 12GB per release per arch, not taking into account the ever growing number of packages.
Kind regards,
