>Is the speed of a 'zfs send' dependant on file size / number of files ?
I am going to say no, I have *far* inferior iron that I am running a backup rig on, and doing a send/recv over ssh through gige and last night's replication gave the following: "received 40.2GB stream in 3498 seconds (11.8MB/sec)" I have seen it as high as your figures but usually between this and your number. I assumed it was a result of the ssh overhead (arcfour yielded the best results). >There are about 3.3 million files / directories in the 'dataset', >files range in size from 1 KB to 100 KB. The number of files I am replicating would be ~100! jlc _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
