Er, no -- the pseudo-image-kit doesn't take much CPU -- it's just
sticking FTP/HTTP files together.

In fact, you presumably have a local mirror of the debian archive, if
you're hosting ftp.se.debian.org, in which case the pseudo-image-kit
would be working at the bandwidth of your disks, which I imagine is
rather higher than the bandwidth you have to your nearest cd mirror.

So, be a good chap and use the pseudo-image-kit.

Once you've done that, if you cannot find a closer mirror to do the
final rsync from, feel free to point it at cdimage.debian.org

Cheers, Phil.
