in reply to Faster way to copy from US to china sever
Everything that blue_cowdawg says is accurate. There are really only 2 ways that you could make things appreciably faster:
- compress the file before the copy, or use a copy method that compresses as it copies
- split the file into pieces, and do the transfer in parallel (and reassemble it afterwards). In some cases, a server won't allow a single connection to use more than a pre-set transfer limit, but will allow multiple connections that can sum to more than the single max rate. As blue_cowdawg also points out, this method won't help if some intervening hop ends up being the bottleneck
