Is the rsync a first copy or are you overwriting a previous copy. How fast is the transfer rate with scp? -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Alex Regan [mailto:mysqlstudent@gmail.com] Verzonden: maandag 29 juni 2015 4:46 Aan: libvirt-users(a)redhat.com Onderwerp: [libvirt-users] Slow network performance issues Hi, I have a fedora21 system that's been running fine under normal network activity, but trying to perform a full backup of the 300GB filesystem is taking forever because the network speed appears to be very slow. Using rsync, the transfer speeds reach a max of like 180kB/s. Using rsync to copy files on the local filesystem is greater than 55MB/s, so I don't think it's a disk issue. What kind of network speed can I expect copying data across the network from the guest to another host on the same gigabit network? I'm using the virtio driver: # lsmod|grep virtio virtio_console 28672 0 virtio_balloon 16384 0 virtio_net 32768 0 virtio_blk 20480 4 virtio_pci 24576 0 virtio_ring 20480 5 virtio_blk,virtio_net,virtio_pci,virtio_balloon,virtio_console virtio 16384 5 virtio_blk,virtio_net,virtio_pci,virtio_balloon,virtio_console ethtool on the vnet0 interface shows the speed at only 10Mb/s. Is that normal? Or even changable? I've included the qemu command-line below. # ps ax|grep propguest 1582 ?
