Hello:
Since a few days, scp downloading 500MB file from a supercomputer at the Italian center CINECA results quite often in
francesco@tya64:~/PLX$ scp -p fpietra0@login.plx.cineca.it:/gpfs/scratch/userexternal/fpietra0/P3f_accelMD_H2O_PLX/*29.dcd /home/francesco/PLX
npt_accel-29.dcd 3% 13MB 0.0KB/s - stalled -
No problem with small files.
Check at CINECA resulted in no malfunction. The provider (TELECOM ITALY) says their adsl if percetly functioning. Actually, the speed, ca 600kb/s, is as expected (don't smile, Italy is at that speed; if you pay more, you can just hope to download at 1000kb/s, while out is always impracticably slow).
My question is: can scp, as available from my installation on a wheezy amd64 box, be responsible?
