[wp-hackers] Load Balancing | Media Uploads to Multiple Servers

[Tim Schoffelman]

We have a current system that does this very thing. Basically, the servers
we run are using a *nix type OS and we just RSYNC the wp-content/uploads
directory w/ our backups. This solution has worked really well for us. We've
messed around with a few other plugin ideas, but found that this one suited
our needs the best. I'm interested in seeing other solutions though.
