direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

Hi Papu,

Once you apply the use-rle as suggested, you may run into other
performance issues depending on the amount of traffic and latency.  If
you do, you may want to give DRBD Proxy a try since it was designed
specifically for this type of scenario.

Good luck with your setup,
Brian
