I don't know how you tested,
Copy a large file across a relatively slow network, and check the size

but could you please repeat the test with
GnuWin32's cp.exe? If it doesn't preallocate the space then I think our way
forward is reasonably clear:
It does not pre-allocate.

. we recommend its use for Windows archive_command settings
. we provide the delay kluge as switchable behaviour on Windows instead of
having it always on.
Sounds reasonable to me.

Are there any changes we need to make here?


Yes. Simon has promised a patch to do the above.

cheers
