Re rsync.. Really? When I first implemented this it seemed rsync did fine with the compressed files. It correctly sent small chunks over on the spots that changed only.

rsync did work with the compressed files. It just worked better with uncompressed. My guess was that the main reason for the improvement is that rsync's own compression is ineffective on files that have already been compressed. Since disk space is becoming an issue, turning on compression should be fine. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
