Hello,
I'm having an issue with one particular server and am hoping someone here has dealt with this. I'm not sure whether this is a strictly samba issue or relates to the way rsync walks the file list. Basically after mounting a Windows 2000 file system using and then rsyncing the contents of this mount, it seems to take 5 - 8 hours to complete. I've checked on the log periodically and determined that it's the 'building of the file list' that is taking 95% of the time. We are only talking about 140,000 files. I do many samba shares and not of them have this issue. When doing a manual 'ls' command in various directories on the mount, I encounter no slowness or anything out of the ordinary. The samba log doesn't give much of a clue either. Has anybody come across this? Or does anybody have any ideas of how to troubleshoot? Oh, and I'm using Rsync 2.6 Thanks, Max -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
