Digg has a link to a great article on HowToForge (http://digg.com/linux_unix/Using_apt_p2p_For_Faster_Upgrades_From_Hardy_To_In trepid) on how to setup apt-p2p so you can download and mirror all your packages via BitTorrent.

I would have posted direct link to the article, but there's an update in the comments for Hardy users which makes it simpler.


So what do you think? How much traffic will be on P2P and will it relieve strain on the servers?
