It is very unlikely to be any confusion in RAM, but perhaps a complete bug report would shed some light... -chris -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Re: Keeping Multiple Rsyncs Separate
They are kept seperate. If one tried to use another's chunk of memory, it'd be a segfault. To permit such interference (and potential coordination) would require using shared memory, and nobody wants to deal with that. If you are, in fact, having one process modify memory belonging to another, that is a defect in your VMM. If you have two rsyncs to the same location, results are indeterminate, since it's a race condition. The above fact explains why they do not and can not coordinate. Only a fool permits two uncoordinated processes to modify the same set of data at the same time. Run one, then the other.
