rsync performance between HP-UX and Debian

[Michael Madden <madden@maddentechnologies.com>]

I've been using rsync to backup HP-UX 10.20 and Debian Woody machines, and 
I've seen performance issues on the HP-UX machines.  On the Debian
machines, I'm using rsync 2.5.5-0.1, and the HP-UX machines are using
2.5.5.  All the HPs are C3600s with 100 MB connections and 18 GB
SCSI disks.  The Linux boxes are various Dell workstations with 100 MB
connections and IDE disks.  With a 1.1 GB directory, I've seen the
following:

src		dest		time
===		====		====
HP-UX		HP-UX		13 m 36 s
Linux		HP-UX		16 m 22 s
HP-UX		Linux		 5 m 49 s
Linux		Linux		 3 m 49 s

At the time of the rsync both src and dest are near 100% idle, but it 
takes forever to rsync to HP-UX.  Has anyone else seen similar
performance with rsync?

Thanks,
Mike
