Hi John,
I'm having the identical issue, moved from pure rsync which wasnt causing a

RStmp is a temporary file used to store the uncompressed pool file,
since you are already doing a database dump and backing that up, why not
split the file up in to chunks? if you use something like rar or 7z you can
split the compressed files up nicely. you could also do some magic with tar
and gz. This would save rsync the headache of md4/md5 on such a large

just copies the file across

RStmp is a temporary file used to store the uncompressed pool file,
which is needed for the rsync algorithm. It's only used for larger
