Hehe, hope you came through on top ;).  Anyways, I added an md5sum calculation 
in the archiving script just to be able to verify that the files don't get 
corrupted. From what I can tell this far they have not been corrupted but I'll 
keep an eye on it.

Would be nice with some input on that. I do think it is the way to go for 
ensuring that two cluster are in synch when switching master (although I cannot 
remember the source of that information). Josh Berkus writes a bit about cycles 
in replication 
(http://www.databasesoup.com/2013/01/cascading-replication-and-cycles.html) and 
writes "temporary cycle is a legitimate part of a transition between two 
different replication setups".

We use fusionio ssd cards for storage. If there is something wrong with them I 
would expect more problems than I am currently experiencing, and more random 
problems...
