We see absolutely dismal performance from Canberra to Perth via
Aarnet or Grangenet (gig connections across the country). With
standard rsync on a tuned tcp stack, we see about 700k/s. I started
playing with the --sockopts and have increased the performance to
1.4M/s which is better, but still way off the pace.
There are similar patches for ssh at
http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/
which work wonders (up to 25M/s where previously we were at 700k/s).
I would love to see similar performance gains from rsync as I've see
from the tuned ssh...
Stu.
