PS. Is http_replicator still available/maintained? I see the wiki mentions
apt-cacher-ng for local distfiles cache.
IIRC it died when python or perl 2.x was no longer available.

That's what I used to do, but had problems when downloading the same file
from to clients at once.
BTW Welc
Quick n dirty solution:
put all distfiles on a central server
FS mount that remote dir to /var/cache/distfiles on all hosts

I may be misunderstanding, but it seems to me that local mirrors are
all-or-nothing. In the interests of saving bandwidth, I'd like to have
a client first check the host's /var/cache/distfiles directory for a
source tarball file. If not found, then fail over to another mirror as
per GENTOO_MIRR
