I'm seeing extremely slow backup speeds. Far slower than anything I'd  
expect given our network layout.

We have gigabit connections and my network testing shows that we  
average around 105+ Megabytes / second between the two machines. So  
network throughput is definitely not the limiting factor.

Server/Client: 10.5.8 osx leopard
Rsync: 3.0.6
BackupPC: 3.2.0beta

I'm *only* backing up the /Users directory currently after noticing  
exceptionally long backups for this client. The /Users directory is  
only 386MB total.

So far, the backup has been running for 5 hours with cpu load rarely  
bumping over 40%.

It seems to be hanging on a subversion repository. The repository is  
only about 240MB in size, a du -sh on fsomerepo in the pc/client/f 
%2Users/fusername/fsomerepo directory has gone on for quite some time  
with no result.

There are no errors in the logs, here's the tail end of the XferLOG.z:

>   pool     444    501/20        107%


it's been at that point for a good while, but it *does* seem to slowly  
progress.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions/help,
