Yes, I know it is used in production in some sites like IFERC Japan.
It is also safe (the server part has been audited by our security experts).

In a nutshell:
- edit the client  script (/usr/sbin/rbhext_tool_clnt) to set the port 
number, the list of servers...
Unlike the comment says, the timeout must be < robinhood 
migration_timeout parameter:
     # must be >= robinhood's copy_timeout value <- this is wrong.
     TIMEOUT=3600
- edit the server script to run the command you want (default is "cp -a").
- setup an xinetd server to run this script (a file in /etc/xinetd.d). 
Here is a sample:
service rbhext_tool_svr
{
     id              = rbhext_tool_svr
     disable         = no
     socket_type     = stream
     protocol        = tcp
     port            = 49999
     type            = UNLISTED
     wait            = no
     user            = root
     server          = /usr/sbin/rbhext_tool_svr
     log_on_success  += HOST USERID
     log_on_failure  += HOST USERID
     cps             = 5000 0
     instances       = 1024
     per_source      = 1024
     max_load        = 24
}

Robinhood config:
- set the copy command:
backend::action_cmd    = "/usr/sbin/rbhext_tool_clnt";
- You can control the number of parallel copies with this parameter:
    migration_parameters::nb_threads_migration = 32;

Henri or Aurélien, do you have this?
