It actually works out to under 600 Mbytes because there's a factor of
3 or 4 in compressing from .PS to .PDF, and then there's some more savings
because I only have one copy of each document but the real MDS set has
duplication.

The original DEC 94 MDS set is 2 for peripherals, 3 for VAXen.

For those who are mirroring, your bandwidth will go up after some others
get done :-). Right now there's about 10 "wgets" going on so the effective
speed for each is circa 4-5 kbytes/sec.
