I can confirm that nemo sftp is painfully slow. I hadn't paid attention to it until recently, but it's transferring at around 30 kb/s. The same transfer using filezilla fstp is at least 10 times faster.
Ubuntu 15.04 AMD 64 Nemo 2.2.4 GVFS 1.24.1-1ubuntu1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1497068 Title: slow file transfer via sftp with gvfs-copy Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I originally encountered the problem when connecting with Nemo via SSH ; file transfer was very slow (~ 5kb/s), while with Filezilla, on the same distant machine, I could transfer at 2-3Mb/s. Using gvfs-copy sftp://.... also resulted in very slow transfer. Note that I have been observing this behaviour for a long time, but not systematically: the file transfer with nemo has already been fast, seldomly. ___ Release 14.04 ___ apt-cache policy gvfs gvfs: Installed: 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.20.3-0ubuntu1.2 Version table: 1.20.3-0ubuntu1.2 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages *** 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: gvfs 1.20.1-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-34.60-generic 3.13.11.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-34-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.6 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Sep 17 22:05:22 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-06-23 (451 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) SourcePackage: gvfs UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1497068/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
