Public bug reported: I originally encountered the problem when connecting with Nemo via SSH ; file transfer was very slow (~ 5kb/s), while with Filezilla, on the same distant machine, I could transfer at 2-3Mb/s.
Using gvfs-copy sftp://.... also resulted in very slow transfer. Note that I have been observing this behaviour for a long time, but not systematically: the file transfer with nemo has already been fast, seldomly. ___ Release 14.04 ___ apt-cache policy gvfs gvfs: Installed: 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.20.3-0ubuntu1.2 Version table: 1.20.3-0ubuntu1.2 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages *** 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: gvfs 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-34.60-generic 3.13.11.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-34-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.6 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Sep 17 22:05:22 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-06-23 (451 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) SourcePackage: gvfs UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1497068 Title: slow file transfer via sftp with gvfs-copy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1497068/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
