And you shouldn't. speed shouln't matter at all for anything, and in
most cases this would be the last option I'll try changing if
something was wrong.

Again speed shouldn't matter. Now for the QUESTION, yes it supposed
to, if it doesn't we have a problem. After scratching my head for a
while I think I know what's going and it is all due to a very silly
bug that I fixed in CVS earlier today.  Do you have something set in
"Ignore end" option? If it is not set then that's the problem. To
workaround it without getting new code, just set "ignore end" to
something, like "~" for example. 

The bug is quite embarassing but basically if "ignore end" is not set
than ALL local files will get ignored, which is what you're observing.

Let us know if this fixes it. 

As for the difference between 2 & 3, in 3 you get the SlowSync forces
on the next sync and thus all records from pilot will be copied. In
normal situations it shouldn't matter and they should behave the same.
