Thanks Matt,
 
Ok well I tried setting the bwlimit, wasnt sure what to set it to. Tried high 800's down to 50kb\s. No Luck.
 
The weird thing is how this worked but a day ago perfectly fine. This is over a WAN, and this is a pretty good backbone between the two sites.

Is there some sort of cache I need to clear...?

This is a well-known problem caused by bugginess in the Cygwin
pipe/socket code.  It is being tracked in this rsync bug report:

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2208

As a workaround, try setting a --bwlimit as described in the bug report.
