Thanks. Hadn't thought about that. I just copied most from the spelled
out "archive" list of switches. But is rsync so "stupid" that it really
considers z for a local transfer?

And still, why is it so much slower than Finder? Finder is dog when it
comes to file operations. Rsync (and cp) is usually many times faster.
