Subject: Faster rsync?
Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2023 08:32:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <65367e55-57ab-22ec-d651-85ec5afe0416@rosi-kessel.org> (raw)
I've found rsync to be painfully slow on large folders -- hours to sync
thousands of files, even when they already match size and --size-only is
used. It's much faster between native Linux boxes. Is there any trick to
improving performance? I've been looking for a native version for
Windows, but it doesn't appear to exist -- as best I can tell,
https://acrosync.com/windows.html is just the cygwin version packaged up.
From past experience, WSL rsync is much faster, but I don't want to
install WSL on this box.
Any ideas?
