Comment (by rhaas):

I believe option 2 will break if Cactus starts to write to a file while simfactory is synching it. The OS will allow the rename and rsync will happily continue reading from the now changing file, possibly mixing old and new content. If Cactus finishes adding to the file before rsync finishes and moves it from tmp to its original name, then simfactory would not notice this (but rsync most likely would when it does its final check on the file content).
