Rat! I really though this sounded right
Oh, well...
Any way to turn of the check sum testing?
Well, there is the "--whole-file" option. But -- and this was news to
me -- the man page says it is already the default for local copies:
-W, --whole-file
With this option rsync’s delta-transfer algorithm is not used
and the whole file is sent as-is instead. The transfer may be
faster if this option is used when the bandwidth between the
source and destination machines is higher than the bandwidth to
disk (especially when the "disk" is actually a networked
filesystem). This is the default when both the source and des‐
tination are specified as local paths, but only if no
batch-writing option is in effect.
Are you doing incremental copies here, or are you generally copying an
entire tree "fresh"?
Hi Pat,
The changes can be random and anywhere. It is basically
19 years of intellectual property I take with me. I
write everything down I trouble shoot at a customer's
site. There is way too much stuff to remember between
Windows, Linux, and Mac.
Have you tested the speed of a simple "cp -a" or tar/untar?
Not yet. I was going to test a find the missing file
subroutine next I had a shot at it to see how fast
I could find the removals, since cp won't remove
defunct stuff.
