The new server was provisioned very quickly, so I'm now rsyncing over
the data, which is going to take a while.  The new server is an mdraid
RAID5 over NVMe disks, so it should be fast and stuff.  :-)

Let's see...  If we say 4TB of data, and 50MB/s (it's only got 1Gbps
network and I'm copying from the backup server in...  France?), then
it's gonna take (/ 4000000000000.0 50000000 60 60) => 22 hours.  Well,
that's not very long!

So I'll probably be doing the switchover on...  like...  Tuesday or
Wednesday.
