There is a substantial CPU load, to be sure. My 2GHz Celeron was at ~75% throughout the transfer. A slower CPU would have spiked, causing a slowdown in the transfer > The OP did those tests, and his 35minute transfer with ssh > dropped to 5 minutes.

But I'd be interested in knowing what hardware is involved, and what the system load looked like during the transfer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
