Yes, but only if the file is bigger than 16MB (otherwise it just does it in memory) and delays doing it until it knows there is a difference in the file. > But I don't understand why lsof sometimes list a file from cpool and > sometimes a file from an already stored backup: > > BackupPC_ 21822 backuppc 6r REG 254,1 16968527 13049275 > /var/lib/backuppc/cpool/5/1/1/5114e50f30d80556ce4c51cc1cdd7fa7 > BackupPC_ 21822 backuppc 9u REG 254,1 40595312 6493166 > /var/lib/backuppc/pc/st-srv-xp/new/fPROGRAMS/RStmp > > BackupPC_ 21822 backuppc 6r REG 254,1 188638976 60093825 > /var/lib/backuppc/pc/st-srv-xp/288/fPROGRAMS/fmicrotech/fAusgabeverzeichnisHis.MBD > BackupPC_ 21822 backuppc 7r REG 254,1 190840832 6493151 > /var/lib/backuppc/pc/st-srv-xp/new/fPROGRAMS/RStmp I think what you are seeing is two different steps: the latter is the file being decompressed into RStmp (although I would expect the FD status to be 7u, not 7r; not sure why). The second step is probably comparing the RStmp file to a candidate file in the pool.
