Method, apparatus, and computer program product for determining data transfer manner
The present disclosure provides a method, apparatus and computer program product for determining a data transfer manner. The method comprises determining a first transfer completion time for transferring a data block from a first device to a second device without compression; determining a second transfer completion time for transferring the data block from the first device to the second device with the compression performed; and selecting, based on a comparison of the first and second transfer completion time, a transfer manner for the data block from a first transfer manner comprising compressing the data block and transferring the compressed data block and a second transfer manner of directly transferring the data block without compression. Through the embodiments, compressing and uncompressing are evaluated based on the transfer completion time before data transfer, so as to select a transfer manner suitable for data to be transferred and for devices that perform data transfer.
