Yes, but remember that the rsync protocol is optimized for low bandwidth networks and high bandwidth disks. When you go over NFS you are increasing the access time for the disks, and especially if you are copying between two NFS mounts on the same machine you've got very high bandwidth for the

Actually, there is a possible exception to that. Certainly, in my situation, I always use -W. Ours is mostly new files or deletions... rarely partial modifications of large single files. consider, however, a slow pipe between systems, one or more mounting filesystems via nfs over a fast
