i've just done a quick test with "chunk size = 50m" in this also works
allright and I'm fairly confident the remote stuff should also work
(it uses the same code paths, except it throws in a '| ssh').

Btw, the "compression level = x" is also in there. I'm going to use this
stuff for the coming week and if nothing pops up, I'll release this before
the end of the year.

Code available on request,
