I've had rsync hangs when transferring hug filesystems (~80Gb) over network,
but till i've suppress the -v option from my command line there's no hang
anymore hang.
The -v option under 2.4.6 is bugged, try to mutiplie v's and the hangs will
increase too.

I went ahead and submitted a change to the rsync CVS to automatically turn
on -W when
There is a feature I would like, and I notice that even with -c this
does not happen, but I think it could based on the way rsync works.
What I'd like to have is when a whole file is moved from one directory
to another, rsync would detect a new file with the same checksum as an
existing

When syncronizing a very large number of files, all files in a large
partition, rsync frequently hangs. It's about 50% of the time, but
seems to be a function of how much work there was

That's two different kinds of checksums. The -c option runs a whole-file

So the chunk-by-chunk checksum always is used w/o -W? I

The discovery phase will by default just check timestamps and sizes.
You can adjust that with command line options, including the use of -c
to include a full file checksum as part of the comparison, if for
example, files might change without affecting timestamp or size.

even for the stuff I do over the network, 99% of it is compressed with
gzip or bzip2. If the files change, the originals were changed and a
new compression is made, and
