Comment 14 for bug 2034656

@juliank : can we not spread the load over 24h without systemd timers ? With a random sleep for example ? Surely people were spreading tasks over a specific period before systemd got invented.

Also you say "they shouldn't then see more load than the archive mirror" but archive mirrors and ESM mirrors are vastly different, in terms of traffic, in terms of hardware, but also because ESM mirrors are HTTPS-only with an authentication backend whereas the archive mirrors are HTTP-only without authentication.
