I don't think RsyncP supports -whole-file for receiving. I initially went over 
to rsyncd because I thought this was the only way to remove ssh, I know 
different now but the problem is RsyncP, which is used in both transfer methods.

Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] RsyncP and --whole-file

I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that the rsync method doesn't ignore the 
--whole-file option. Is there a reason why you use rsyncd instead of rsync?

trying to see if the -whole-file option in the rsync options avoided the delta 
xfer algorithm that is not important since it is not transferring over a 
network. I had a look in the RsyncP code and it ignores the -whole-file option. 
Could this be implemented in RsyncP since the backup rsync processes are very 
CPU bound and this slows down backups, particularly full backups.
