That worked, thanks! What are my options for throttling data via cp? ie: cp /tmp/fourgigfile /mnt/fourgigfile
FWIW, I'm trying to copy files from one filesystem to another without sacrificing system performance. This maybe where I should be using blkio.weight but I'd like to be able to put a hard limit on the speed of the copy. Thanks again, -=Dusty On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 8:21 AM, Vivek Goyal <vgo...@redhat.com> wrote: > On Sun, Aug 07, 2011 at 11:39:33AM -0700, Dhaval Giani wrote: >> [Adding vgoyal to the cc] > > [..] >> > ------ process 31646 ------ >> > >> > user@localhost$ dd if=/tmp/fourgigfile of=/mnt/fourgigfile bs=4k >> > count=1000000 >> > 1000000+0 records in >> > 1000000+0 records out >> > 4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 58.6709 s, 69.8 MB/s > > Currently blkio throttle does not control the buffered writes.
