This is why I've trashed away backuppc by replacing it with plain rsnapshot

There was no way to backup 250GB hosts with 4 or 5 millions of files due to the forced fsck almost every time

Please, I went reading about rsnapshot and it also makes extensive use of hard-links, does it perform differently than BackupPC about this? And what file system were you having trouble with? Was it Ext4 as seems to be recommended?
