Hi Guys,

I need advice on speeding up this task:

- name: "restore files to {{ location }}"
  ansible.builtin.copy:
    src:  "/home/ian/backup/hobson42/var/www/ianhobson.com/"
    dest: "{{ location }}"

It copies 5022 files, totalling 109.2Mb, and even though both machines have NVME SSDs and the network is quiet, the task takes over 30 minutes! Note - some of the files are owned by root, and have "600" permissions, which need to be preserved.

How do I go about this in a secure way?

I was thinking of setting up passwordless keyfile access for root, and then using command: sudo rsync, delegated to localhost, and tearing root access down again afterwards. How would I do this using Ansible?

Ideas and advice welcome.

Ian
