I was going to suggest this, but I think (I could be wrong...) that ssh would then use zlib for compression and that ssh is still a single-threaded process. This has two effects: 1) gzip compression instead of compress - may or may not be right for the application 2) encryption + compression happens in same thread. While this may be fine for systems that can do both at wire or file system speed, it is not ideal if transfer rates are already constrained by CPU speed. The Niagara 2 CPU likely changes the importance of 2 a bit. -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
