In this case, it no longer matters, and for those that are interested in
how to use rsync to transfer a 20G file full of 0's in a few minutes
over a very slow connection, here is how:
rsync --partial --progress source destination
Then, cancel the transfer after 1% or so.
Then, restart the transfer with the same command.
Wouldn't it have worked to enable ssh compression with the -C option for
this?
And how about rsync's spare file option?
-S, --sparse handle sparse files efficiently
