e...@logtenberg.eu changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |e...@logtenberg.eu ------- Comment #1 from e...@logtenberg.eu 2010-11-23 03:54 CST ------- Speaking about variable bandwidth, it would also be sweet if rsync could somehow be signalled to use a different bwlimit than the one it was started with. The use case is: on huge rsync jobs (think multiple weeks) one would like to throttle the bandwidth rather stringently during daytime (when the internet connection and/or server performance is needed for work), and speed up the rsync job during night time. Currently this would mean killing and restarting rsync every time you'd want to change the throttle. With a huge job (think at least a couple of hours to send/receive file lists) this results in a highly inefficient usage of resources. It would be awesome to be able to signal rsync in some way to use a different bandwidth throttle without otherwise disturbing the ongoing transfer. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
