This is what is currently in my log file
/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/rsync.crash.log. Does this help explain any of
my problems?

Adam,

you don't need to switch to UFS completely. You can create a UFS
partition on free HD space, or on a second HD.

You can even create a UFS disk image inside a file and mount it. There
is a GUI utility (can't remember the name right now) to do it, or plain
old CLI utilities to do it as well. It will be significantly slower, but
will give you a test environment. If that works better, you might have a
winner.

regards,




martin
