hi, i observe some weirdness in rsync file transfer i cannot explain. i'm transferring data from 2 freenas storages to a linux vm with zfsonlinux. "fnask" is older freenas with rsync 3.1.1 running in daemon mode, freenas-bnkw is more recent with rsync 3.1.2, also daemon-mode. on the linux vm where the data is being pulled from the 2 freenas boxes, i look onto io bandwidth being used with "iotop -a". transfer from freenas-bnkw storage is much much slower then from fnask storage. why can i see two rsync processes transferring data from "fnask" but i see only one rsync process with "freenas-bnkw" where the parent process is transferring nothing ? is there a difference in how this is being handled between 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 on the remote side ? is this the reason for the slowness ? regards roland Total DISK READ :???? 278.72 M/s | Total DISK WRITE :?????? 0.00 B/s Actual DISK READ:????? 97.09 M/s | Actual DISK WRITE:?????? 0.00 B/s ?
