Hi: I use rsync to transfer multiple files from several clients to a server in parallel. I am wondering how many concurrent connections the server should handle to maximize the throughput (number of bytes written to server). In an extreme case, if only one connection allowed, the disk IO speed of server will not be fully utilized. On the other hand, if the server allows too many connections, the hard driver header will move around for writing different files, which may also slow down the disk IO throughput.
Does rsyncd do any optimization for handling concurrent connections? and does anyone have experience on fine tuning the server to maximize the throughput? Thanks.
