</I>><i> The current cooker tree (RPMS + installer only) is 88GB (SRPMS + i586 +

</I>><i> This mean at the begining our mirror will be ~80 GB and in 3 years (1

</I>><i>
</I>><i> 700GB is an huge size. I know anyone can buy a 1 TB hard drive for a
</I>><i> small price, however this is not the way it works in real datacenter
</I>><i> where people take care to the safety of data (RAID1 is two disk). And
</I>><i> we have to think to future: what will be the size in 6 years ?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> The current full Mandriva mirror is more than 1,2 TB.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> So an immediate question come: should we try to reduce the size ?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> There are solutions, but they implies changes in our development
</I>><i> process and have counter parts:
</I>><i> - using hardlink between RPM:
</I>><i> - can be done for noarch inside a release
</I>><i> - no resiging packages from cooker to stable at release (rpm changes,
</I>><i> any possible hardlink get broken)
</I>><i> - do not push -debug: will bother others developers
</I>><i> - removing old distro (having another tree for old): this usualy
</I>><i> bother people having old distribution still working on some
</I>><i> computers, 3 years is not a so long timelife
</I>><i>
</I>><i> So:
</I>><i> - is this kind of size an issue ?
</I>><i> - do we have to reduce it ?
</I>><i> - do you have comments/idea about this state ?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Regards.
</I>Isn't the SVN that uses most of the space? Do we need to have everything back
to the beginning incl all releases?
