Subject: rdump is slow
Sender: hackers-owner@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

Has anybody sat down and tried to figure out why?

(rdump is taking about six hours to dump <700MBytes across an ethernet;
doing about the same amount, spread over different filesystems, takes about
30-45 minutes locally, to the same tape drive.)

It could be due to the ethernet, I suppose, but... I think it unlikely.

Any comments?

Sean.
