rsync hangs during transfer

[Dimitar Dimitrov]

I am running the following rsync command to synchronize directories
between two servers: 
rsync -axvz --delete-after -e ssh /SRCDIR/ blabla at DEST:/DESTDIR

The transfer starts and after a short while it appears to hang after
some files have been transferred. The process establishes connection on
both sides so I did an strace from the remote machine (using the
rsync-debug script as described in the troubleshooting procedures). The
strace output is here

rsync --version on both machines shows 'rsync  version 2.6.9  protocol
version 29' and both machines are running Debian.

I would appreciate some ideas on where to look next.


Thanks in advance,

Dimitar Dimitrov
