[gentoo-user] [OT] fast recursive local copy
Hi, I am looking for a faster way to do a cp -a r thisdir thatdir locally on one machine with one harddisk inside. Is there a neat trick to accomplish this faster than good old cp? (I have to reorder greater part sof user data on my harddisc...) Thank you very much in advance for any help! Have a nice weekend!
