"tar -c | ssh $remote tar -x" is generally much more performant than scp
(because of asynchronity), plus "tar" can transfer a bunch of extended
file attributes too, if parametrized correctly (my preference is "--acls
--selinux --xattrs" when it matters).

For progress updates, pass "-v" to the remote tar, or else insert "pv"
("pipe viewer") between the local tar and ssh.

Thanks,
