100,000 kbytes/s transfer?


Recommended Posts

That's not unusual at all on a modern high-capacity drive and Gb network.  Newer drives have a very high areal density, so they can saturate a gigabit network on all but the innermost cylinders.

 

By the way ... update to RC16c.  There's a known bug in RC15 that can cause data loss anytime you have an "unclean" shutdown ... that bug is fixed in the current RC.

All of a sudden, I'm seeing ~100MB/s transfer rates from 5.0-rc15 to my desktop machine. Nice!

 

Whats that using ? midnight commander over telnet ?...i get really poop rates..lucky to get 35mbs over my GB LAN :(

 

Reads or writes?  35MB is very reasonable for writes -- it's limited by the multiple disk I/O's that are needed for every write operation.    But for reads, you should get much better rates IF you're using modern 3TB or 4TB drives.  I typically get 100-115MB transfer rates when reading large files from my backup server (all the drives are 3TB WD Reds).    [Transferring a large number of smaller files is slower, due to the overhead associated with both the reads & the writes]

What is the test? If you are moving/copying a file, remember the read/source might be limited by the write/target.
