I tried putting this into Rdiff.py to replace the previous divide by
2000 section and I am still getting:
 python: ERROR: (rs_job_iter) internal error: job made no progress
[orig_in=120794, orig_out=65536, final_in=120794, final_out=65536]
UpdateError TWDOCS2002.adm librsync error 107 while in patch cycle

I also notice in _librsyncmodule.c there is #define RS_JOB_BLOCKSIZE
65536 and 65536 is the the orig_out and final_out that it's saying in
that message.  Is it something to do with that define perhaps?  By the
way, has anyone been able to test files >=25gig and had it work?
