This doesn't seem to be the worst point. I mean: the machine is not going down under pressure or something like that. You can really work with it. Only the speed is going down. > processor usage, given that the big files are about 70Gb. Try massive > block sizes, apart from that I have no ideas. I tried this and it got slightly better, but the higher I set the blocksize the longer I have to wait before it starts. And I can only lengthen the time until speed begins to drop again. Maybe after 20 or 30 minutes I ran into the same problem. > The problem is unrelated from network bandwith, though... Can you elaborate on that ? What's the problem ? Besides of this problem rsync would be the perfect tool to move heavy data throughout the machines... Mermgfurt, Udo -- Udo Wolter <-> [EMAIL PROTECTED] | /"\ !!! Free Music Video !!!
