hi, I have an 20G archive of pic files which would have to be mirrored onto another server. It contains large JPEGs, around 10k files, one of the servers is located in Boston, the another is in Budapest, Hungary. I use
rsync rsync://remote_box/remotedir localdir/ -zcvr --progress --size-only The issue is that the remote server sends the filelist very slow. Looking into the rsyncd process with strace shows that rsync reads all the files from byte to byte, and after receiving the filelist, rsync client does the same. The aim would be sync depending only on the size and the existence of the files, not comparing each other. If this is RTFM, please give me the correct RTFM:// TIA, Wigyori Zoltan HERPAI -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
