Hi, Rob:

I never suggested that you should not attempt to measure the performance of FTP on i5/OS versus on a PC, or that if a difference is detected, that you should not go ahead and open a PMR, etc. I was just pointing out some "caveats" -- and things to consider, that could influence the results.

I concur with John Jones' reply -- if you are going to "measure" the relative speed of FTP on i5/OS versus FTP on a PC, you might want to set up a "controlled environment", using FTP to transfer the same file from another local server on your local network, to i5/OS, and then do it the PC. :-)

Let us know the results of your testing. :-)

What led you to this line of inquiry in the first place? Have you noticed that FTP on i5/OS appears to be slower than FTP on your PC, when transferring the same size files from the same server or site?

Thanks.

All true, but just because there may be considerations when measuring does not preclude the attempt.
