I hope to follow up with the patch soon. Here is a proof of concept path, which simply fails any non-synchronization requests in the send thread when in the async mode. This is non-optimal, as it would cause additional latency in the write path when the send thread is busy with synchronization requests. But it works for me, making it possible to use my virtual machine while synchronizing the disk image. http://sobomax.sippysoft.com/primary.c.diff -Maxim
