I have setup debian mirror using official archvsync script suite. Mirrored
architectures are: all source i386 amd64. The rest of config for ftp-sync
is kept on default values. Everything seems to work fine - only problem
is that the mirror is too small, at least according to this website:
'www.debian.org/mirror/size'. Sum of sizes for these architectures is
1488GiB (give or take, data are changing every day), but I have only
930GiB stored on disk dedicated for mirror. There is no filesystem level
encryption involved (ext4) or anything like that. There should be no
problem with master mirror (ftp.debian.cz), since I have tried multiple
different ones with no difference. Are installation image sizes included
in these architecture sizes? If not, what makes the difference?

I'd say your numbers are pretty accurate.
And one last thing - everywhere is recommended not to sync
'security.debian.org/debian-security' for security reasons. I understand
why, but are packages in this repository rotated into regular debian
repository after a while?
yes, debian point releases contain security updates.
Just curious, since I do have some offline machines I update from my local
repository.
you can mirror security updates for them, but better don'd publish it and
don't rely on it.
There are solutions like apt-offline, apt-cacher and others that could help
you.

I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
