I'm having trouble backing up localhost, and have traced it down to this:

Out of memory during "large" request for 16781312 bytes, total sbrk() is 
354103296 bytes at /d/3/backup/BackupPC/lib/BackupPC/FileZIO.pm line 191.

So... I assume that means it choked trying to compress something really big,
but I thought ZIO had protections against that sort of thing, and did 
compression in smaller chunks or something.  Is there some way to tweak its
handling of expensive compressions, or to get it to note the error and still
proceed to back up everything else instead of aborting the backup?

Thanks,
steve

The command run was:
/usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l root localhost /usr/local/bin/rsync --server --sender 
--numeric-ids --perms --owner --group --devices --links --times 
--block-size=2048 --recursive --one-file-system --specials --ignore-times . 
/d/2/
