Some benchmarks copying a gigabyte (1024**3 bytes) file, no compression, over a LAN: - scp (3des) no tunnel - 01:34 - scp (blowfish) over tunnel (blowfish), 02:23 - scp (blowfish) over tunnel (3des), 02:31 - scp (3des) over tunnel (blowfish), 02:36 - scp (3des) over tunnel (3des), 03:26 And surprise, sftp has the worst performance! - sftp (3des) - 03:37 I tried the 'fish' (Files over SSH) mode of lftp, which is supposed to be the same as sftp, but the same file was estimated to take over 2 hours! -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
