I tried the same command using rsync 2.5.5 on a Solaris 7 machine and it
got around 860MB before I cancelled it. Is this one still a problem for
you? I was copying to an empty directory and using a different operating
system, but at least it rules out a widespread general problem. I haven't
seen anybody else reporting a similar problem. Perhaps it was a temporary
problem on rsync.kernel.org.
