Speeding up Transfers of 1000s of files

[Max Clark]

Hi all,

I have to transfer thousands of files across my network. We are looking at using rsync via a squid proxy to help improve the network tuning. What I am witnessing now is that with each successive file, the transfer speed resets to 0 and ramps up to 2.5MB/s.

Is there anyway that I can group these transfers together to take better advantage of our bandwidth? I should be able to peak at 5+MB/s.

Thanks in advance,
Max
