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). Jerry |
This all depends on the speed of your network, Jerry. I update a very large sparse image on the network every day, and it takes less than 20 minutes.
We can't go any faster than the system lets us go... |

Yes, it's gigabit ethernet. The point being, it all depends on the speed of the connection...
