The chart is showing data from an NFS copy, but the listed speeds in the blog and on github[1] are from a copy on a local SSD. That is a bit confusing though, maybe I should make it more clear. I used the network copy for ETA calculation because it was an easy way to make the transfer take longer - if the whole copy is only a few seconds long it's difficult to meaningfully compare ETA estimation accuracy between two approaches. I would like to have more performance data though.

- abvr 6y agoI would love to see a comparison between scp and wcp over NFS, more specifically large single file sizes, if folks are looking to discern more performance parameters. wcp is good stuff!
- wheybags 6y agoI would expect pretty much any plain copying program over NFS to beat scp, since scp has the overhead of encryption. On a slow disk with a fast CPU it might roughly match though.
