rsync - Jan 2010 - timeout changes in 3.1 working

It seems the latest timeout changes in 3.1 work well. I was having
repeated timeout aborts in a sync of large files through a very slow
connection, which made each file transfer take very long. The latest
version no longer aborts and the sync finished successfully. The
destination used version 3.1 and the origin some 2.9; protocol was 29.

Great to hear!  It's nice to know that a 3.1.0 receiver is indeed helping to
keep things alive that used to die, even without 3.1.0 on the sending side
(which is exactly what I was hoping for).  A 3.1.0 sender also helps to keep
a non-3.1.0 receiver going, as some testing I'm doing at work has proven (0
timeouts when doing some --dry-run difference-finding runs over about 7 TB
of files to each of 30 mirrors -- that's a huge improvement).  I'm
liking
the new 3.1.0 I/O and timeout code a lot.
