I usually do zfs send | lzop -c | ssh -c blowfish ip_of_remote_server "lzop -dc | zfs receive" lzop is much faster than gzip. I'd also check how fast your disks are, make sure it's not the bottleneck. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
