AS 3.0 PB75 - Network copy speed test

Post by Jan Rysavy »

We would like to ask you for comparing AS 2.54 / AS 3.0 PB75 / Windows Explorer network copy speed.
Copy the same large file over your network (wired or wireless) and take Task Manager screenshot as we did in http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=5447

We have report (Czech only) about slowdown introduced in AS 3.0 PB75: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5493

How does AS 3.0 PB75 work on your network? Please let us know...

1,01GB file over 100Mb/s local network, Win7CZ

1. AS 3.00x64, Avg. speed 10,60 MB/s
2. AS 2.54, Avg.speed 3,05 MB/s
3. WE, Avg.speed 11.10 MB/s

Edit: copying from my Notebook to Win2008 server. I will test the oposite direction later...

Are those data from upload or download? Could you test the opposite way as well. I have encouraged problems while downloading file from remote to local drive in the Czech post.

Test in 100Mbit LAN at work. Test in Gigabit LAN at home will follow ...
Writing speed to network seems to be O.K. But strangely older Salamander is faster in reading from network than the public beta :?

Meanwhile I have tested some more other file manager. None of them had shown this problem with the low copy speed.

Could you solve the problem?

I have no more hope, because I started an thread with the same problem in December 2011 here (http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5252) and nothing happened :cry:

Ran across this - FWIW; 15 Free File Copy Tools Tested for the Fastest Transfer Speeds.
(No I'm not promoting anything or any method, but just look at the [often quite] varying results obtained by all these products promoting, in the broadest sense, "speed".)

Thanks, interesting test! We will patch our copy routine to use more simultaneous transfers at one time to get better network performance, so we may try to compare it with some of these tools.

Faster asynchronous algorithm is implemented from Altap Salamander 3.0 beta 3 (PB103).
Please test it across your networks and let us know in a new thread if you find any problems. Thank you.
