Btw. I've found out that clients on AIX (5.2., oslevel 07) also show the

However Windows Clients (Version 1.4.0008) don't suffer from the delays.
I find this quite interesting. This provides a bit more weight to my
theory that the actual bug is not in the RX patches that were applied
between .82 and .84. I believe there is a race condition in the RX
library on non-Windows platforms. The patches to RX to use thread local
queues and statistics gathering increases the parallelism and therefore
the likelihood that the race condition will be triggered.
This feels like the same bug that I mailed about a while ago. I
noticed that decreasing the chunksize makes it trigger more often, and
while transferring a large file (DVD iso) it occurs more often at the
end than in the beginning. This goes for both my Linux test client
(UP) and my AIX 5.3 client (SMP).
