If bandwidth / space isn't too much of an issue you may want to drop the compression down or off. That may help speed up the transfer.

Does anyone know of a good way to speed up rsyncd on a Windows machine? I'm doing remote backups, from Windows servers on a 100Mb/s link to a Tier1 provider, to my BackupPC off-site location on Verizon FiOS. It seems to be taking an awful long time to get the data down to me. I just started doing them a few days ago. The only server with a transfer rate says the speed was 0.13 MB/s I just did an scp of a 45Mb file from a server in the same location, to my backup machine. scp reported 935KB/s, taking 49 seconds. 0.13 and 0.93 are a world of difference. I'm assuming there's something in the rsyncd configuration I could change, but there wasn't a lot of documentation in the rsyncd package. I'm using the one from the BackupPC site, not my own compile. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
