I played with this a bit. When you rsync with both source and target
on the same machine, it appears to fork two processes, and connect
them together via a unix domain socket.

I tried reproducing this with 4.9.86. I used the command

rsync -az /home /root/home

which copied 12G of data. No problems seen. But this is one disk. I
assume the machine giving the problem has one of the disks as USB,
since the QNAP TS-119P II is a single bay NAS. So it could be the USB
disk is slower than the internal disk, and there is a backlog building
up. First a backlog for writing out to the disk, then a backlog
forming on the Unix domain socket? So maybe that is why i cannot
reproduce it. Or the problem has been fixed between 4.9.65 and 4.9.86.

Would it be possible to try to reproduce this problem with 4.9.86 on
the hardware reporting the issue?

Thanks
