Don't try this at home...

This morning I did a smart update to an image on a firewire
drive attached to the mac.

It took about 19 minutes, good! The image is about 50GB

I had a copy of the image on a USB disk attached to my
linux system so I nfs mounted the partition containing the
image and repeated the smart update.

This time it took 3.5 hours, bad!

Home network backups suck*.

* The linux box is connected to the local net via wireless g ( 6MB/sec?)
The usb drive is connected to the linuxbox and hdparm asserts
a 25MB/sec read ability.

It took about 40 minutes to copy the original disk image from the
fire drive to the usb drive (both connected to the linux box).
