you may want to look into carp as well if you don't want to have a separate
layer of load balancers.

rsync / rsyncd is simple and works. But it really depends on how often you'll
be publishing to your site, how big are the change sets
( consider publishing to a separate directory via rsync and then doing an
atomic rename/move if the change set is too big.)
we used to publish from AU to NL to dir1 in server1 , then ssh to server1 and
rsync to server2-n in parallel - all from a script of course. That way, the
slow link ( AU <-> NL) never got in the way of the publish.
