Can anyone suggest a good way to speed up rsync on really large files? In
particular, when I rsync the mail spool directory, I have a few users with
inboxes over 1GB and up and it seems to take a very long time to just
compare the files. Maybe it would be faster to copy from scratch for files

way I can test it to see, which is faster, but if someone can clarify the
behavior I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,

I saw the -W option, but I wasn't sure about how it behaves as the
man pages don't have many details, and I thought there might be
other options I missed. For -W the man page just says copy files
whole (w/o delta-xfer algorithm)
Take a moment to
