--files-from standard input

Hi All

If rsync gets files from standard input, when it starts to process that
file, immediately or read until EOF, or somewhere in between?

For example, if a list is generated slowly but continuously and keep
feeding to rsync, will rsync wait a very long time before ever handling
the first file?

Is this behavior controllable?

Thanks!

Ming
