Trying to rsync a rather large file from a windows server to a centos server
and all but this is working fine.

As it's a 20 gig file I am trying to send the diff of with a -c, I suspect over
the low bandwidth this presents an issue. I also stage this file locally on another
centos server and could calc the diff and create a patch and send that, comparing
checksums etc...

A quick look at bsdiff and bspatch and the mem requirements on my 20 gig file make
that solution rather not acceptable.

Anyone know a better solution to accomplish this?

Thanks!
