--- Comment #3 from Scott Baker <[email protected]> --- Transferring a 1.8GB VM image on a gigabit network: ``` root@green(~) :time scp test.bin yellow:/dev/null test.bin 100% 1821MB 108.0MB/s 00:16 # Enabling compression is significantly slower root@green(~) :time scp -C test.bin yellow:/dev/null test.bin 100% 1821MB 20.0MB/s 01:30 ``` Alternately using this "hack" with `cat`, `ssh`, and ZSTD I was able to decrease transfer time by ~40%. ``` root@green(~) :time cat test.bin | zstd | ssh yellow 'zstd - -d > /dev/null' real 0m9.691s user 0m12.178s sys 0m4.458s ``` For transferring large files, and/or groups of large files via scp/rsync having a modern compression method would be a **huge** win. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. _______________________________________________ openssh-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-bugs
