Fast Copy With "cp -z" is Taking The Same Time as a Normal Copy at The First Iteration (Doc ID 2566356.1)

Last updated on JULY 05, 2023

Applies to:

Solaris Operating System - Version 11.4 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

High-speed copy (cp -z) seems to be slower than expected.

At the first iteration of using the the -z switch to the copy command  (i.e. "cp -z"  - the fast copy),  it has been noticed that it is taking around the same time as a normal copy operation or in some instances even longer.
When attempted a 2nd time "cp -z" appears to be  significantly faster.
