This will be case if we migrate to ANY service, and aussie is unlikely
to stay very long.

My website is based on sf.net/pmwiki and users could upload files,
using pmwiki's upload facility.

Doing any major file change in such a web-based file system is slow. I
could check out and rsync in seconds...(not using aussie though).
