I've been trying to test rsync on files over 80GB again to see if I can find ways to improve performance further. I tried passing a manual block-size value and I keep getting "Invalid block length" from the [sender]. Can someone refresh my memory of the valid values that can be passed using this parameter?
I've tried passing 1048 and the -vvv output shows the file being processed in 1KB intervals. I pass 1048576 and I get the error message from the sender. I have not modified the define in rsync.h, it is still ((int32)1 << 17). Since the value is an int32, passing 16MB or 1MB or 512KB should not be a problem, right?
