plonqQuestion: How long does it take to copy 38,646 files (8,566,073,912 GB of data) from one of our servers out in Toronto onto my desktop computer?
Answer: Just over 18.5 hours. That works out to about 125 k/s
The sad thing is that we could have burned the data to a couple of DVDs and sent it out by overnight courier and I'd have had it sooner.
People here wonder why I start tearing at my hair every time I am forced to work with large files on one of our network shares...
