request: add TCP buffer options to rsync CLI?

[Jason Haar]

Can someone tell me if such options would help the likes of ourselves 
with more "old fashion" linkspeeds?

We have 1-4Mbps VPN-over-Internet links (between continents - i.e. high 
latency), and routinely find rsync only capable of 300Kbps - and rsync 
is the best performer we can find. If we "parallelize" several rsync 
jobs (i.e. start a bunch at the same time), we can certainly chew up to 
80% of the max bandwidth - so the raw throughput potential is there.

Would such options help single rsync jobs? Actually, are there good 
default options in general that we could use that might help in our high 
speed, high latency environment?

Thanks!
