I just have upgraded my local server to Fedora 26 which included an uprade of BackupPC v3 to BackupPC 4.1.3.
Unfortunately, I experience a subtle difference of the file exclusion mechanism which hits me hard performancewise. With old BackupPC (cannot prove anymore) as well as with a manual test like rsync -av --exclude=/home/felfert/.m2/repository target:/home . On the target (in rsync terms: server), the specified directory is simply skipped which takes just millisecs. With BackupPC 4.3.1, the directory is missing in the resultin backup (as expected). However: The whole hierarchy below /home/felfert/.m2/repository is still recursively read on the target which takes ages (in my case ~2hours) and also puts quite some load on the target. This is a huge performance degradation compared to v3. Can somebody confirm this or do I have overlooked some necessary change (ragading v3 -> v4 migration) in the config? -Fritz
