greetings.
i've discovered that in the most cases the speed of copying files from slice_A to slice_B on my FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p4 is about 15/20 MB/sec. it is too slow if i'm not mistaken. are there any causes for that?
i have two slices: the first for system and the second as file-storage, with UFS on both of them.
as for dd tool, it gives me the following output:
it is definitely *not* 20MB/sec!
as for my hard-drive, i have:
could you clarify why there's such slow speed during copying files between those two slices. thanks.
