With reference to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=2, it seems to me that rsync timeouts occur because of too long being taken in processing results locally between transfers, not because of a slow link. For instance, on my dual-Opteron box I have 40s set, but on an ancient P5/60 I need to set it to at least 600. Both these boxes use the same Internet connection. Secondly, "amount" is for uncountable quantities such as water, not for countable quantities such as seconds. "Number" is right for those. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
i'm going to commit the changes in two different commits so translators can ignore the english semantics
fixed; thanks for reporting
Sorry if I sound a bit pernickety - I used to do this sort of thing for a living, since when I can't help noticing things that I'd say differently :-(
