Very easy to tell. If ssh is burning user-mode cpu time the encryption is a factor. It is very unlikely the encryption is having any affect on throughput. Unless you are on very old hardware the network is slower than the CPU and for rsync the disk latency likely makes it slower than the 10MBps network. > > Steve Sills > Platnum Computers, President > http://www.platnum.com > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Streubert, Christoph" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Chuck Wolber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Steve Sills" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2004 12:52 PM > Subject: RE: Rsync's Speed > > > I do not know the details of your syntax - however in case you use it - > encryption adds a lot of overhead to the transfer process.
