[rdiff-backup-users] librsync error 107 while in patch cycle

[Clint Silvester]

Does anyone use cygwin with rdiff-backup?   I'm trying to use it to 
backup our very large dataset.  It takes 20 hours to backup the first 
time (over a gigabit connection), and it looks like the files come 
across just fine.  The second run of these backups takes forever.  I 
could see the first run taking a long time since it's copying huge 
amounts of data, but I thought since it's only going to be sending 
differences (or maybe that's what's wrong here) it should be much 
faster.  In fact, it took less time to do the initial backup than it did 
for the second one.  These errors make me think that there's still a 
problem with large files:

python: ERROR: (rs_job_iter) internal error: job made no progress 
[orig_in=129238, orig_out=65536, final_in=129238, final_out=65536]
UpdateError TWDOCS2001.adm librsync error 107 while in patch cycle

Like the 65536 is the highest number of blocks it can handle.  I don't 
know if this may be something in librsync or rdiff-backup, so I'm 
sending to both lists.

I'm using version 0.9.7 of librsync, but I don't know if there is 
anything I need to do special to get it to compile with large file 
support in cygwin.  Any suggestions?
