Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your replies. The autotuning in the 2.6 kernel seems to be much
better than manually setting the buffer sizes for the rsync client and
server.
Tuning the kernel allowed us to triple the speed.

I saw the same sorts of improvements... approximately 300% over a 45

Hi fellas -
Just my 2 cents here. I experimented with this also a while back and with:
socket options = SO_SNDBUF=65536,SO_RCVBUF=65536
in my rsyncd.conf on the server side, and:
--sockopts=SO_SNDBUF=65536,SO_RCVBUF=65536
as a part of my rsync command line on the client, I get almost 2x the
Hi Ryan,
Thanks for your reply. I have been experimenting with the buffer settings
and when specifying it actually causes the transfers to go slower.
I am running an rsync server using xinet.d and an rsync client. I have
tried specifying the sockopts on just the client, server, and both.
Thank

Hello,
Working a few servers that are transferring data across country with a 75ms
delay on a GIGE connection. We can tune the tcp buffers on linux to improve
the connections using iperf. Does rsync use the tcp buffers of the OS or
does it override these settings?
Thanks,
Neal
