My apologizes for replying to an ancient thread, but I'm curious if an 
upgrade from 2.x to 3.x will help with bandwidth efficiency much?

I was under the assumption that BackupPC never transfers the same file 
twice unless it changed after the last backup (either full or 
incremental), even in the 2.x version.  Was that an invalid assumption 
on my part?

Thanks for a great product!
