Hi, I'm experiencing timeouts during synchronization of large files. The scenario is as follows: Locally I have a large file (e.g. 20GB), which is already present at the server. When I try to resync it with:
rsync --inplace --ignore-times -vvvv --compress bigfile rsync://xxx@... The '--ignore-times' is only to force a comparison. The real world scenario would be the sync of a truecrypt container. This transfer aborts with a timeout. The reason is that during the hash_search phase no packets are sent to the peer. If I omit the --compress option, tokens are sent regularly, preventing the timeout, but send_deflated_token() seems to collect an hours worth of responses before sending them out. Flushing them on a regular basis to prevent a timeout would be good. -Arne -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
