Category: SFTP Group: v1.0 (example) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Daniel Stenberg (bagder) Summary: slow SFTP download speed Initial Comment: SFTP download speed slower in ~10 times then upload speed over SFTP in the same network conditions. As I am understood it is already known issue. Do you have patch or some workaround to increase SFTP download speed? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2009-03-04 20:23 Message: okay, I accept that some problems are hard to fix. And I am somewhat reassured by your response, especially the speed of it. But I will tell you that libssh2 for PHP has in fact caused me endless grief with the many bugs it has. And AFAIK it uses this library. Now I've been assuming that the problems I've been encountering are with the PECL library itself and not with the underlying libssh2. But after seeing this bug report I started to wonder just where the real problem actually is. SSH2 for PHP is in insanely bad shape. http://pecl.php.net/package/ssh2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tor Arntsen (tor-arntsen) Date: 2009-03-04 17:19 Message: People _are_ maintaining this package, but this particular problem requires a re-design of how libssh2 currently works, more or less. In other words, the performance problem is a bit tricky to solve and that is the reason it is still not fixed. Other libssh2 problems are routinely being fixed, so it's not the bane of open source projects just yet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2009-03-04 17:06 Message: libssh2 is a very important and widely deployed library, especially by PHP. This sounds like a pretty important problem. How come there isn't any one maintaining this package? Am I being naive/unreasonable? Is this the bane of open source that M$ loves to crow about? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Stenberg (bagder) Date: 2009-02-26 11:56 Message: it is known, but there's nobody working on it and there's no patch that I know of. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=703942&aid=2641265&group_id=125852 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel mailing list libssh2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libssh2-devel
