[2022] Only 1 Minute 50 Seconds to Transfer 100,000 Files Cross-border

In real life and work, various applications such as Internet social networking, audio, and video are constantly producing files every day. These files may be as large as 1TB, or as large as a large number of small files.

At present, the bottleneck of transmitting massive small files is IO performance. The reason is that the filehandles need to be opened/closed frequently in the transfer of massive small files, but there is very little to read and write after the files are opened.

As follow, we use FTP(FileZilla), a traditional file transfer tool, and Raysync, a professional file transfer software, to conduct a comparative test.

Test environment: Beijing Alibaba Cloud-new york Alibaba Cloud

Test files: 100,000 small files

Configuration: 4 core 8G memory

Bandwidth: 200MB/S

Packet loss: 5%

Latency: 200ms

The test data is as follow:

The data shows that FTP takes 168 hours (7 days) to transmit 100,000 small files across the country. After using professional file transfer tools, the speed is reduced to 1 minute and 50 seconds, and the transfer time is improved by 5,522 times.
