Is there a faster way to copy files over NFS?

I would use find+cpio. This handles hard links, permissions, and in case
of later runs, will not copy files if they already exist on the
destination.

# cd /source/dir
# find . | cpio -pvdm /destination/dir


Old thread I know but cpio has proven twice as fast as rsync.

Trusty ol cpio.

Gonna try cpdup next.

Try sysutils/clone, too.
