Take the 2-minute tour ×  I am wondering what would be the best
way to Copy a file src to dest within Scala that will be wrapped
in an Akka Actor and possibly using a RemoteActor with several
machines.  I have a tremendous amount of image files I have to
copy from one directory to a NFS mounted directory.  Haven't
done much FileHandling in Java or Scala, but know there is the
NIO lib and some others out there that have been worked on since
Scala 2.7. Something that would be the safest and quickest.  I
probably should give some idea of my infrastructure as well. The
connection is 1000 MB's in which connects via a Cisco3560 from
an Isilon node to a Windows 2003 Server. The Isilon node is the
NFS mount and the Windows 2003 Server is a highly configured
Samba(Cifs) mount.  share|improve this question Just curious,
why don't you copy them using OS tools, as usually? –  om-nom-

that has to be copied and converted. By Terabytes it's 97TB to
be exact. Plus
