No, that's totally expected. While select() is waiting for I/O to arrive,
it returns to rsync every 60 seconds to allow it to decide if it wants to
continue waiting or do something else. You have to find the process that is
exiting first to discover why the connection is closing. This assumes that
it's not a network issue, where all of the programs get a closed-connection
error.
