You could benchmark against one of the public sites that offers DragonFly
src both through cvsup and rsync, but the variability of the Internet path
from you to them and back would mess up the scores, and the relatively
lower speeds may mask any differences in the two protocols.
but actually that's the thing they are used for:  transferring sources over the internet.  if somebody is interested, you are invited to use chlamydia for byte serving.  just give me a short heads up before.  i am both serving cvsup and rsync.  i think it is also important to time the zero-update case, i.e. when you already have the latest sources.
