I'm curious: would it be easier if we had rsync write out the in- 
memory file list to disk after a successful request (named, as you  
proposed, after a hash of the options), and to simply monkeypatch the  
file list generation routine to check whether there's a matching on- 
disk list before agreeing to generate one from scratch? Seems like it  
might be a pretty simple hack for someone who's familiar with rsync,  
but then I have little knowledge of rsync internals. I also suspect  
it might not be a total hack -- anyone serving large trees that  
change relatively infrequently could benefit from the functionality.

Cheers,
