Subject: Re: Disk bottleneck
you might want to try this trick i found on the gentoo-wiki a few
weeks ago ( http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Fast_Copy ).

instead of doing:
    cp -v file destination
you can do
    tar -cf - file | tar -C destination -xvf -


read the wiki for more information and how to do it over ssh.
