Since the other thread is huge and hard to follow, I am creating a new thread. I would like to use this thread to talk strictly about the Local Mirror wiki article.
I have updated the wiki article to reflect the new pool directory. Currently there are some packages that are in pool/ while others are still in {$repo}/os/${arch}. Those in pool have symlinks to {$repo}/os/${arch}
From my understanding, eventually, all packages will be in pool/

I am hoping someone who runs a Local Mirror can try this out. I do not have a need for a local mirror nor do I want to pull Gigs of data from a mirror to test this. However, I have done dry runs on the rsync command.
@Devs: Maybe someone can update the Mirror Section in the NewMirrors wiki article http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:NewMirrors#Mirror_size
Thank you for recovering this page. --
