So, what are the options for sending many large files between machines without encryption?
SSH insists on encryption, but there are apparently patches that will allow it to be turned off. We looked into this some years back, with exactly the same reasoning. AFAIR, the best option was instructing ssh to use some low-quality (ie. cheap) cipher.
In the end we didn't bother - there's some extra load on the CPU on both ends, but nothing worth mentioning.
Other options - nfs, iscsi?
Hmm... iscsi? I might have to take a look. We still use nfs, but from distant past experience there's quite a performance hit. I'll revisit and run some tests. BTW, using classic rcp we were able to get about 80% of wire-speed on a 10-GbE connection, but only about 30% when using scp. I'm assuming that encryption is the big driver here.
