+	<question>
+	  Is rsync useful for a single large file like an ISO image?
+	</question>
+	<answer>
+	  <para>
+	    Yes, but note the following:
+
+	  <para>
+   Background: A common use of rsync is to update a file (or set of files) in one location from a more
+   correct or up-to-date copy in another location, taking advantage of portions of the files that are
+   identical to speed up the process. (Note that rsync will transfer a file in its entirety if no copy
+   exists at the destination.)
+
+	  <para>
+   (This discussion is written in terms of updating a local copy of a file from a correct file in a
+   remote location, although rsync can work in either direction.)
+
+	  <para>
+   The file to be updated (the local file) must be in a destination directory that has enough space for
+   two copies of the file. (In addition, keep an extra copy of the file to be updated in a different
+   location for safety -- see the discussion (below) about rsync's behavior when the rsync process is
+   interrupted before completion.)
+
+	  <para>
+   The local file must have the same name as the remote file being sync'd to (I think?). If you are
+   trying to upgrade an iso from, for example, beta1 to beta2, rename the local file to the same name
+   as the beta2 file. *(This is a useful thing to do -- only the changed portions will be
+   transmitted.)*
+
+	  <para>
+   The extra copy of the local file kept in a different location is because of rsync's behavior if
+   interrupted before completion:
+
+	  <para>
+   * If you specify the --partial option and rsync is interrupted, rsync will save the partially
+   rsync'd file and throw away the original local copy. (The partially rsync'd file is correct but
+   truncated.) If rsync is restarted, it will not have a local copy of the file to check for duplicate
+   blocks beyond the section of the file that has already been rsync'd, thus the remainder of the rsync
+   process will be a "pure transfer" of the file rather than taking advantage of the rsync algorithm.
+
+	  <para>
+   * If you don't specify the --partial option and rsync is interrupted, rsync will throw away the
+   partially rsync'd file, and, when rsync is restarted starts the rsync process over from the
+   beginning.
+
+	  <para>
+   Which of these is most desirable depends on the degree of commonality between the local and remote
+   copies of the file *and how much progress was made before the interruption*.
+
+	  <para>
+   The ideal approach after an interruption would be to create a new file by taking the original file
+   and deleting a portion equal in size to the portion already rsync'd and then appending *the
+   remaining* portion to the portion of the file that has already been rsync'd. (There has been some
+   discussion about creating an option to do this automatically.)
+
+   The --compare-dest option is useful when transferring multiple files, but is of no benefit in
+   transferring a single file. (AFAIK)
