Re: ** ssh to copy/ftp files with compress

It seems in my Unix (SunOS 5.10) there is no -C option for scp  Never know that option before :-)

Is that comparison with or without the –C flag on scp?

I usually find the following (executed at the target server) is able to transfer a file much faster than directly scp. However, gzip will consume some CPU. 
 
ssh2 source_server 'cat ${FNAME}| gzip -c' | gunzip -c > ${FILELOC}/${FNAME}
