Craig, I'd like to get your patch into the 2.5.6 patches directory.
Could you please make sure it applies cleanly onto version 2.5.6pre1 (see
news on http://rsync.samba.org home page if you haven't been following
the mailing list) and repost it?
Thanks,
- Dave Dykstra

transferred, so that needs to be fixed first

are lots of system calls, and also most network traffic comprises lots
of small packets. The behavior is most extreme when sending/receiving
file deltas of
