Hi All I would just like some Interpereting. Below is an RSYNC output with the --stats option. I would like to get a "What each field means" type of description if anyone can help. Specifically I want to know how much Data has actually travelled across the wire (Please note I have used the "z" option in rsync so the files are compressed as they cross the wire):
Number of files: 32592 Number of files transferred: 7337 Total file size: 4.57G bytes Total transferred file size: 1.32G bytes Literal data: 264.77M bytes Matched data: 1.05G bytes File list size: 583441 File list generation time: 68.733 seconds File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds Total bytes sent: 1.64M Total bytes received: 67.48M sent 1.64M bytes received 67.48M bytes 6.68K bytes/sec total size is 4.57G speedup is 66.06 Number of files: Looks Fairly Self Explanatory. This is the Total number of files in the Directory Number of files Transferred: Again, self explanatory. This is the number of files that were matched and transferred Total file size: Easy Totall Transferred file Size: I think this is the size of the files transferred before compression Can someone confirm this? Literal data: ?? Matched data: ?? File list size: ?? File list generation time: ?? File list transfer time: ?? Total bytes sent: ?? Total bytes received: ?? - I am Pretty Sure this is the Number I am looking for. This appears to be the Size of the compressed files crossing the wire.
