i understand that unison uses the same algorythm but does it have the same
memory issues when transfering a lot of files?
alternatively i think i may just break rsync up into smaller jobs and sync
each specific directory seperately with a 'for x in 'ls /'; do rsync $x
rsyncd://serveraddress/' script. that would help limit the number of files
in each rsync interation and work around the memory usage issue. i may have
to go a step further and omit the backuppc archive directory and run another
'for x' script in the top of the hosts directory so i would launch a
seperate rsync for each host.
