These <4GiB transfers sometimes take close to 3 to 4 hours using NFS, and it is a Gigabit network. rsync appeared to be a bit faster, but my goal is to find the most efficient transfer method to move lots of little -and some big - files across a local network. > > > > > Dan Mossor > > What kind of NAS is this? Are the disks in good shape? Even with 10/100, the transfer rate should be faster than DVD write speed, allowing you to burn the disc on the fly, without copying everything to the workstation first. > > Gigabit has a theoretical max of ~125MB/s. You're nowhere near that; changing the transfer protocol to gain a few percentage points on throughout is a moot question when the bottleneck is clearly somewhere else. If your workstation is a Raspberry Pi, you have probably reached it's limits and should probably consider an upgrade for any measureable performance gain. > > --Pete
Oops, sorry for dragging off-list, Dan .
