Hi,
ssh: OpenSSH_5.3p1
rsync: 3.0.6
OS: CentOS release 6.3
I got the same problem here, syncing 95M to amazon ec2 without
--bwlimit parameter. It should be not caused by cygwin. From 3.0.6 to
latest version, I did not find any ssh related problem fixed.
After the syncing job is over, ssh process did not quit and consumes
100% CPU. I collected other information, wish it may help.

Onderwerp: RE: Rsync / ssh high cpu load
Hi again,
Still working on this one. When I rsync/ssh a big file to my server over the
local network (100Mbit/s) with the --bwlimit=1000 I only have a small CPU
load. SSH takes about 10% and rsync approximately 0-5%. In the end the
transfer speed usually is around the value I set in bwlimit.
When I transfer the same file to a remote machine, where the bandwidth is
limited to roughly 140KB/s and the bandwidth limit is set to something below
this value I get around the same values which I have on the local network,
SSH 10% and rsync somewhere between 0-5%.
If I change the bwlimit value to 150KB/s or higher the SSH load goes up to
70% and rsync to 30% fully consuming my CPU.
I think the problem is pretty clear now. Does anybody have an idea, what the
next step could be to the resolution of this ?
Regards,
Jan

Hi,
In an attempt to narrow this down a bit I installed a RedHat machine with
openssh-5.3p1 and rsync-3.0.7 and did the same test as below.
Transferring data, both up and downstream, are not giving me any CPU load.
Although there is a small version difference in the rsync versions, I would
say that this is caused by the cygwin layer.
I will mention this in the cygwin list.
Still, if anybody has any ideas how to solve the issue below, please let me
know.
Warm regards,
Jan

Onderwerp: Rsync / ssh high cpu load
Hi everybody,
I am using Cygwin rsync/ssh to synchronize my files from my home computer to
my server. I raised a question on the Cygwin list as well, but thought this
list would be appropriate too.
The issue is that the CPU on the sending side is fully allocated by
rsync/ssh (both taking 50%) during a file transfer. This is the command I
use:
rsync -e ssh * <user>@<server>:/data
After some more testing on this I figured out that rsync/ssh is only taking
the full cpu if the bandwidth allocated to the session exceeds the true
bandwidth available on the link.
For example, if the uplink is 128KB/s and I pass in the --bwlimit=24
parameter the cpu is around 0%. Even --bw-limit=126 does not take 100% cpu,
but --bwlimit=132 does. Note this is the first install, the /data directory
on the receiving side is empty.
Would this be because of packet loss on the link and packets have to be
retransmitted ? I will do a quick test tonight with rsync/ssh between two
linux boxes (without cygwin), see what that gives me.
Note that I am using these versions:
Cygwin: 1.7.1-1
ssh: OpenSSH_5.3p1
rsync: 3.0.6
Has anybody seen this before ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jan
