using the following switches rsync -aer --delete Rsync hangs when it encounters parallels virtual machine files

It is difficult for me to find out what is causing the issue. I believe it is not RsyncUI or RsyncOSX, but it may be some issues with rsync and parallels virtual machine files. I suggest you try to copy the actual rsync command including the --dry-run parameter and paste it into a terminal window to see if rsync throws any errors or just hang. The GUIs does not execute the real rsync command, the GUIs are only kicking off the external command. And after kicking off listening for the process termination signal. The real work happens outside the GUIs, so if the GUIs are "hanging" they might never get the termination signal.
