I've problems transferring a database file which are around 80 gb (one file) from a Linux box to a FreeBSD box. I've tried with most of the common tools such as rsync, ftp, nfs and scp. None of these managed to transfer the whole file. The record was just over 50 GB.
It seems that this accur only when a FreeBSD box are involved, between two Linux servers works fine.
Both boxes are HP Proliant DL380 G5 servers with dual quad-core Xeon and 24 GB of ram.
FreeBSD box are running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE with ufs-filsystem
Linux box are running Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 with ext3-filesystem.
I've tried with some sysctl tweaking but this are very unexplored areas for me so my values can be completely wrong.
net.inet.tcp.recvspace=393216
net.inet.tcp.sendspace=393216
net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=0
net.inet.udp.recvspace=147456
kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=1048576
kern.ipc.nmbclusters=49152
