rsync - Feb 2010 - rsync daemon performance

Hello,

We have multiple clients that are connecting to our rsync daemon, sending a
small file, and then disconnecting. This works well, but rsync forks each
time there is a connection.

Is it possible to get a "pool" of waiting daemons, similar to how
apache
runs?

No, there is no support for that in rsync at the moment.  I don't think it
would be simple to add, but if someone wants to work on patch, I'd consider
adding it to rsync (whether as a feature or a patch would depend on the
change).
