does --whole-file always work?

Hi,

Running rsync with --whole-file yields poorer performance results than a
simple "cp".
Looking at the code - it looks like "copy_file" isn't really called when I
add the --whole-file flag. The regular "receive_data" is doing the copy.
Anyone encountered this? No other special flags (rsync --whole-file -av
/mnt/ttt /home/sss/ ).

Thanks,
Amir
