takes no more than 20 minutes to start when going to disk - and even
then it doesn't take that long. I've got the connect and read timeout
set high enough that that's not why it's failing -- as a matter of
fact, it's over 2.5 hours in to an attempt right now and has yet to
write any data.

Every minute or so, I get a packet from the server, but no data flowing.
