While testing new gigabit-switch, I noticed
that file transfer through KIO sftp:/ is much slower in KDE 4 (.3.4) in my system compared to KDE 3. I use openSUSE 11.2
What is strange, **the problem is seen, when getting ****files **from remote system. When you put files to remote system through sftp:/, the difference does not exist (or is much smaller).
For example, when I copy 800 MB file from remote system via sftp:/ in my LAN (1 Gbit Ethernet Switch)…
- with Konqueror 4
I get 2.3 - 2.7 MB/s - with Konqueror 3
I get 10 - 12.4 MB/s
As you see with Konqueror 3 I would get file 4 times faster (1 minute versus 5 minutes).
This affects at least Konqueror 4, Dolphin and Krusader/KDE4 (2.0).
Konqueror 3 and Krusader/KDE3 (1.90) are working fine.
That is why I think that it is KDE 4 KIO sftp:/ problem.
I am considering bug report, but I want to make sure that it is not just my system.
You can help me if you do the following:
-
Download file
(which is not too small - at least 200 - 300 MB) **through sftp:/ **with **Konqueror 3 **(or Krusader 1.90: kde3-krusader package from this repository Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_11.2) - Do the same
in Konqueror 4 (or Krusader 2.0) 1. Post back
here:
- download speed in Konqueror 3
(Krusader 1.90) - download speed in Konqueror 4 **
(Krusader 2.0) - Nominal speed of your LAN
(e.g. 100Mbit or 1Gbit) - kdebase4-runtime
package version** (my is 4.3.4-1.3-i585 from Index of /repositories/KDE:/43/openSUSE_11.2 )
Thank you for your attention.
