The way I see it, the build site should be a fast machine (only webwml rebuilds take hours sometimes), push mirror should be a well-connected machine (obviously), and the main website should be both (I guess all those apache's swallow lots of resources). But I don't think we have any available machines that can do all three, correct me if I'm wrong. Moving the build site from master to a less loaded machine would be a good start. Same goes for cgi.debian.org. Lully seems like a good choice for that, I don't know if its T1 is sufficient for also being the push mirror... > > Also, the web stuff should have it's own account.

Something like archvsync... account that would hold web-related cronjobs and files. Name could be "debwww", like the group name, I guess. -- Digital Electronic Being Intended for Assassination and Nullification
