I experience quite high CPU usage during file transfers with lftp at high
transfer rates (around 10 MB/s). Using vmstat I observe about 25% of CPU time
spent in userspace during a get transfer, and 30 to 40% during a mirror
transfer. For comparison, the ftp and wget programs only take something around 7
or 8% of userspace CPU time during a file retrieve operation.

I'm using self-compiled lftp 3.1.3 on a Debian unstable system, with a
self-compiled 2.6.10 Debian kernel.

Anyone else encountering this?

Thanks,

Andrei

P.S. Anyway, thanks for a great program! I haven't used another FTP client from
the day I learned about lftp.
