Package: rsync Version: 2.6.9-3 Severity: wishlist Hello.
Just recently I got the opportunity to backup about 60 GB of data using rsync over a 10 MBit ethernet (yeah, slow). The destination machine was only a K6-300, but it had an empty 200 GB disk with ext3 filesystem on it. Looking at top occasionally, it seemed that the daemon doing the journalling was working at least as hard as rsync was in receiving all this data, most of the time I looked it was working about twice as hard. Anyway, I thought someone might be interested in this. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-k7 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages rsync depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.42-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.5-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpopt0 1.10-3 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii lsb-base 3.1-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip rsync recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
