Copy files remotely using multiple streams
Avoid traffic shaping of individual TCP streams by copying over multiple streams.
Install the script into the path on both the local and remote computer.
This is currently only supports downloading files.
Note that splitcpy requires sshpass if sites are being accessed that require an ssh password.
Usage
$ splitcpy.py -h
usage: splitcpy.py [user]@host:path [path]
splitcpy.py [user]@host:path [...] [dir]
Copy a remote file using multiple SSH streams.
positional arguments:
path filename, with optional path
dir directory name (file name taken from source path)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-s n,i,l (internal use only) Generate file interleave of 'l' bytes for
the 'i'th slice out of 'n'
-f (internal use only) Output far-side wildcard information
-p port ssh port to use (if not the default)
-n num number of parallel slices to run (default=10)
