Except that Ghost was using (or still uses? I switched to udpcast since ages) ACKs from the destination hosts to adapt the bandwidth dynamically. So you didn't have to give/impose the bandwidth. The funny part was when a machine in a room with 45 PCs was misbehaving (read: failing HD), basically bringing the transfer rate close to zero for the whole deployment... and good luck finding out which machine it was.

Exactly my experience w/ Ghost, too. I moved over to udpcast as well. (The last time I did this kind of work I simply ended up blasting the output of "ntfsclone" via udpcast. I was very happy w/ how it worked.)

Am almost doing the same, basically udpcasting a file that was created with partclone.ntfs -c, and piping that to partclone.ntfs -r :)
