You'd think. Might be disk read/write instead, I suppose - but that
should be a thin wrapper as well.

Shouldn't be - cwRsync uses 3.0, previously I used various 2.x
versions on Windows. The NAS uses 3.0.4, the Apples use 2.6.9, Linux
3.0.4.

Slightly under 3meg/second... which doesn't make much sense. Using
"xcopy /r src dest" and a stopwatch gives me 24meg/second!

Slow too.
This is a different winbox to the one I used originally 18 months ago,
both hardware and software. This is XP, that was Win2000.
Odd, eh? Never mind.

Okay, it works now. Or at least it malfunctions in all the expected ways.
