well, this is a linux kernel problem, somebody decided that ptys need
not handle lines longer than 155 bytes at a time, so there. I'm just the
messenger, talk to redhat about that issue. normally it should work
anyway, but theres no guarantee. but are you sure that it is this issue
that is causing the problem? maybe its located somewhere else? have you
tried the rsync procedure manually? tried to find where the time is lost
in the expect script?
