Hi Just a suggestion that it woild be good idea to have speed limit in dd tool so one can use it to for example spare network bandwidth when copying file like this:
cat file | dd --limit-speed 1M | nc 10.0.0.1 10000 or spare drive's load copying file like this: dd if=/mnt/sda1/file of=/mnt/sda2/file --limit-speed 10M There is tool "cstream" that similar to "dd" one can use it to copy file locally: cstream -i /mnt/sda1/file -o /mnt/sda2/file -t 10m or remotely: cstream -o /tmp/file host:port -t 100k but its not under GPL license: "The license is similar to the X consortium license" The speed limit shouldve been added to dd at the very begining it will make it even more useful. Thanks.
