Hi,

Now that I've started to use rsync for local file copies, I'm seeing this
too. I copy between two local Solaris 2.6 RAID filesystems (not even NFS to
confuse the issue). rsync tends to hang just before finishing the copy. When
I rerun it, rsync -v just prints out a few directory names (I guess it still
needed to update the directory modification dates or something) and
completes normally. Running it a third time shows that I am then up to date.
I've seen this behaviour a couple of times with large copies and a colleague
(running on a different system) saw it several times before.
Quite apart from having to kill the program, this is annoying as I don't get
the statistics. I haven't tried 2.3.2. Does anyone have any ideas?
Tim.
