That looks sound to me. Could it be that 0.4.3-rc1 is slow beyond reason
because it makes a lot more retries than 0.4.2+patch did ? (since it
reopens a new ftp connection upon timeout, it has the initial 300s
timeout). If this is a case, it may be a better strategy to close the
connection and reopen it if a timeout occurs.

What do you think about this ?
