Not really.  If I have a poor network connection to the CVSup mirror
used, then I'll spend much long connected to it.  Thus causing a higher
"load" on the mirror.  Where "load" is either one of the connection
slots, or actual kernel resource load if I have 20% packet loss and thus
cause a lot of retransmissions to occur.
