Hello,

There is no "resume file" capability.

Protocol 1 works at file level granularity.

Protocol 2 works at a combination of file level and block level granularity,
which in practice should mean that you should be able to resume within the
last 25MB that has been transferred. If it doesn't, there is a bug.
