I have been transfering music to my MP3 player (yes, I still use MP3 player...) and I've noticed that the process takes A LOT longer then on Windows.
I went ahead and measured the time using time on Linux and just wrist-watch for windows:
Code:
119 Files, 687MB total
LINUX COPY:
garzet@GarzetRig:~$ time cp -r Music/Norther/ /media/garzet/WALKMAN/
real 19m38.427s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m1.109s
AVG SPEED: 0.58319185059 MB/s
WINDOWS COPY:
time 2m5s
AVG SPEED: 5.496 MB/s
I have tried using rsync and GNOME files/Nautilus- more or less the same results.
OS: Ubuntu 18.4 / Windows 10
USB: 2.0
CPU: i7-6700k @ 4.4GHz
Other: Dual boot, same USB port
I have seen some kernel issue back from 2008 which is supposed to be the result of slower copy speeds on Linux when compared to Windows, but don't think it is relevant anymore.
I did googling-morning and couldn't find any solution.
Are there any ways to speed this up?
