Performance question

Looking at the performance hit on my server, does it matter wich command I run?
Code:
client # rsh server tar –cf - . | tar –cv –f –

or
Code:
server # tar –cf – . | rsh client ‘cd target && tar –xv -f –‘

I think it doesn't really matter because both command strings involve a tar being run on the server and client. Both commandstrings do a read on the server and a write on the client.

Are there compelling reasons one would choose for option 1 or option 2?

Here G,C are m*m matrix, B*us(i) is a m*1 vector and s(i) are n different numbers. I need to solve the equation n times to... (1 Reply)
