-s for cvsup on mirrors?

Hi,

Is it feasible to use the -s option as an argument for cvsup in
update.sh?
I'm trying to squeeze a little more performance out of this cvsup box,
and this hourly cvsup is producing relatively many disk accesses.
Has anyone every tried? Or will it break things? (what I understand:
cvsupd is using this file, and probably keeping it up to date as well,
so you might start depending on the fact that every file is accessed
once every hour, or not?)

I will give it a shot at my 'home mirror' first of course, but if anyone
ever tried it before, please tell me the results.

Mark
