Only files that are sent to the store. Here's an example of what I'm
seeing with 'ExtendedLogging = yes':

Aug 20 04:35:07 mostro bbackupd[2125]: Send
StoreFile(0x2f16,0x41b70ed5684c0,0x57a46e0d1741a059,0xce6c,"index.html")

You are not seeing anything like that on the client machine? These logs
are from a 0.09 installation, but I think this should log the same on
0.10.

OK. I guess there is no harm in using the 10 second number. I believe
the SSL timeout is 180 seconds, so I set my KeepAliveTime to 90. Don't
know that it would have any impact.
