I didn't find any type of tutorial about mirror sites. I did find a good, brief 
explanation of
the benefits of having your site mirrored.
Here is the explanation-
"What is a Mirror Site?
A mirror site is a website or set of files on a computer server that has been copied 
to another
computer server in order to reduce network traffic, ensure better availability of the 
Web site
or files, or make the site or downloaded files arrive more quickly for users close to 
the mirror
site. A mirror site is an exact replica of the original site and is usually updated 
frequently
to ensure that it reflects the content of the original site."

I found this explanation here-
