Having sync on a 10 or 15 minute delay means that you can (hopefully) 
catch a potential mishap reaching the other box in time, whereas 
immediate sync would possibly lose this useful 'feature'.

We do this at work (when we can't think of anything better) to sync 
between two non-live, but similar environments.  Having a wee delay has 
saved my job (ok, a grandiose delusion, but saved me from a telling off 
- or worse, extra work) once before.
