Rsync Causing High Load Averages

Filed under: Linux — Tags: , , — admin @ 3:39 pm

Hello
Well I have a script that run a make a backup from one server to other. But when it run, because I have a lot of files and some files are big, the serevr has high load.
So a short fix is to decrease the speed of rsync to 10mbit
rsync --bwlimit=10000

I think there are other solution also using nice / ionice however like I say this is a short fix.
