Craig, I'd like to get your patch into the 2.5.6 patches directory.
Could you please make sure it applies cleanly onto version 2.5.6pre1 (see
news on http://rsync.samba.org home page if you haven't been following
the mailing list) and repost it?
Thanks,
- Dave Dykstra

I use a win2k-win2k rsync with daemon, and that
patch makes a *big* difference! Especially the file
list transfer and syncing big files with small changes
goes a lot faster with the patch. Unfortunatly the
rsync deadlocks after all the files have been
transferred, so that needs to be fixed first

I've been studying the read and write buffering in rsync and it turns
out most I/O is done just a couple of bytes at a time. This means there
are lots of system calls, and also most network traffic comprises lots
of small packets. The behavior is most extreme when sending/receiving
file deltas
