it sounds very strange, the scp should be slower (or at best same speed) as it needs additional step of encrypting data. It could only be faster if it is (maybe by default) doing ssh compression of data on the fly, so it has less data to transfer. Also, are you sure you're correctly droping caches before each test ? Because if you run nc test first, and scp seconds, scp will have advantage of not having to access disk at all to read the file (as it will probably be in cache). Can you show exact commands and outputs you get to conduct those tests (use script(1) or something to capture it) ? you could also try using iperf(1) to measure network bandwidth between SD and FD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
