BUT (there's always a but), some systems are size restricted. For instance, slicehost slices have very limited disk space, so copying the chroot to do this has potential to cause issues. I don't like special case code for shitty systems, but perhaps we could keep both aufs and rsync code in there, enabled by a command line switch? (-U use a union (aufs) to keep chroot clean [DEPRECATED])
The size overhead is about 500MB in its worst case. If you are that low on disk space you should not think about building packages.
Well, the worst case is 2GB as I have four chroots. (testing/stable-i686/x86_64). Allan
