--whole-file not working ?

[Satsco]

Steve,

I dont know much about rsync... but --bwlimit *does*
work when i rsync from an smbfs mount to a local
partition. and it works *beautifully*.

net speed of transfer is always reported below the set
bwlimit.

perhaps the rsync gurus on this list can explain
how... but i can swear that it does happen.

regards,
Satsco.
