Hi I was thinking of contributing some server resources to Arch Linux. The document on the web site doesn't seem to list any requirements or such for official mirrors. I doubt that my small cluster would be sufficient, so can anyone provide me with any information as to how much bandwidth / disk space should be required or expected from an official mirror?

Thanks.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  I think Pierre has answered the question as to what diskspace and other info you should know. As far as I know, there are no formal bandwidth requirements, and the amount of bandwidth that will be used is related to how many users choose your mirror, which is probably mostly going to be determined by how fast the burst speeds on your link are.

The Donwload/Mirror page also links to http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:NewMirrors

Disk space should be less than 100GB. There are no numbers for traffic of course.
