Rsyncing huge file, timeout on rsyncd

[Libor Klepáč]

Hello again,
still didn't find solution for timeout.

What exactly is happening during initial "no progress" period?
I guess, destination rsync is computing checksum of whole destination file 
before transfer starts from source?

Is there any way to force rsync to start copying data (almost) immediately  - 
let's say, after computing checksum of 10% of file? 

With regards
Libor
