Wondering if a few posters could post a > timed transfer of know amount of data I often sync big files (between 300 and 700/800 MB) between two machines, and the transfers seems to be at least beyond 4-5 MB/s, using NFS and FC1 on both. I detect only disimilar rates depending the machine which mounts nfs. One machine is a laptop with Pentium-III and a ATA66 harddisk, and another a desktop with Athlon XP 2.0 and ATA133. Seems that the 66 MHz IDE bus limits the transfers when the laptop mounts and receives the data. Anyway, beyond 4 MB per second, I sync files of 800 MB in less than six minutes, sure. (Done a few minutes ago....:-) There are not special hardware....a PCMCIA 10/100 Ethernet, another one built in motherboard, and a ADSL modem router (which works as switch between machines, apart from supplying Internet access), often working, even when I transfer the files. Nothing seems to smell burned...:-) If some process drain CPU power, then the transfers rate falls dramatically, below 2 MB/s. By example, if I'm seeing that videos with xine...but that's I like Linux......do not try to do it under anothers......without a blue sun glares, I meant.....:-) -- Saludos, Aurelio Sánchez fae7901 circling terra Spain fae7901 circling yahoo Spain Registered Linux User # 272846 GNU Privacy Guard Public Key available at pgp.rediris.es Created by Ximian Evolution 1.4.5 running on Fedora Core 1
