I've already ruled out the network; I'm able to prove that rsyncd on the 
windows side is simply not very fast :-(  In fact, I'm almost willing to 
bet money that, if everyone checks their Full backup times, none of the 
rsync ones will be over 10MB/s.  Why is rsyncd performance so bad in 
Windows?
