The speed improvements over rsync seem related to a more efficient rolling hash algorithm, and possibly by using native windows executables instead of cygwin (windows file systems are notoriously slow, maybe that plays a role here).
Or am I missing something?
In any case, the performance boost is interesting. Glad the source was opened, and I hope it finds its way into rsync.
