Hi there,
I've been comparing using the ZFS send/receive function over SSH to
simply scp'ing the contents of snapshot, and have found for me the
performance is 2x faster for scp.
Can you give some more details about the configuration of the two
machines involved and the ssh config.
For example is compression used in the file system and/or with the ssh
connection.
How much data are you transfering ? Is is lots of small files or a few
number of large files ?
Can you give some actual numbers.
Has anyone else noticed ZFS send/receive to be noticeably slower?
I haven't but then I haven't done much benchmarking since it was fast
enough for what I needed.
This is actually a very good pair of things to compare. It would also
be interesting to compare rsync over ssh as well.
