It's strange, I really can't make it break. I tried thrashing the disk and cpu of the client machine and ran the one initiating the rsync request on a lower powered slower machine with less RAM. I'm afraid I am going to just have to shrug and say "don't know".... I never could make it break consistently... The only thing left at the back of my head is the ssh transport, I know the behaviour of ssh when disconnected changed a while back. Now, when one connects to a server and some I/O could come back the connection remains open and you have to explicitly disconnect with the ~. escape sequence... man ssh See the section "Escape Characters" Perhaps this is the interaction that's keeping the channel open and causing rsync to barf? I don't know enough about the process to really have an idea...
