...e. (And this is another reason why you want a fairly large file, so the transfer time is dominated by actual file transfer, rather than the overhead.) Lastly, do the reverse test: log in to the C6 box, and copy the file back to C7, e.g. "time scp /tmp/bigfile.tar.gz <IP of C7 host>:/tmp/bigfile_copy2.tar.gz". Again, the time should be approximately the same for all three transfers. If either or both of the latter two copies take dramatically longer than the first, then there's a good chance something is askew with the network config between C6 and C7. Oh... all this time I've be...
