@statsguy@mas.to Performance might vary a bit depending on whether there is a lot of data to transfer or not. Rsync hashes file chunks to avoid sending data when it’s not necessary, and the C version might perform slightly better for that. Otherwise the process is I/O bound, which should mean you get the roughly the same performance when there is a lot of data that needs to be transferred. Personally, I’d shell to rsync, but then I’d probably use a shell script instead of python as well, unless there is some other need for the capabilities that python provides.
