We're working on some patches which makes rdist much faster over
ssh (about four times faster for our local use). Rsync is fine for
some stuff, but it isn't really a replacement for rdist. Some of
the more recent versions of rsync also seem to have problems with
some versions of ssh too.
(We were going to try to write a rdist/rsync cross but found another
way around the problem).
