I have two Linux machines, Linux1 and Linux2. They both have two NFS mounts. We'll call them /scratch1 and /scratch2. And they both reside on the same NetApp filer. If I copy a 512Mb file from /scratch1 to /scratch2 while logged on Linux1 it takes 40s. However if I scp this file from Linux1:/scratch1 to Linux2:/scratch2 it takes about 10s. Why such a big difference? Any and all thoughts are welcome. Thanks.
