Over sometimes very bad trans-pacific internet connections rsync -avPz --timeout=7777 --exclude '.?*.*' --exclude "temp*" Many files where nothing changes goes very fast. Large files with a few scattered changes throughout the middle will go rather slowly. Usually instructive just to watch it and see what happens. Just a guess, but take a look at whatever the contents of pg_dump actually look like. In particular, compare one dump to another taken later. You might spot something obvious. > > _____________________________ > Stephen Zemlicka > Integrated Computer Technologies > PH. 608-558-5926 > E-Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -----Original Message----- > From: Robert Fitzpatrick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, September 17, 2007 4:38 PM > To: Stephen Zemlicka > Cc: 'rsync' > Subject: RE: File bit synchronization? > > On Mon, 2007-09-17 at 16:02 -0500, Stephen Zemlicka wrote: > > Rsync performs delta copies.
