It will benefit the group of servers if the servers have very little overlap in server configuration, but if all 5 point to the exact same servers it provides little.

This is where peering provides it's benefits. _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
