Re: How to change rsync to run upon rsh ?

Disks are ALWAYS slower than memory computations.

Nonsense. A computation in memory can be arbitrarily complex
and therefore outweigh any kind of disk I/O.

The heavy thing is called encryption.

You know this how?

I can measure how much time (CPU time and real time) is used for
encryption and how much is used for data transport, disk I/O or
network activity.
