Hello rsync performances is a regular question with Backuppc... and is a regular problem where I do not find a good solution.
I'm using BackuPC 3 and time to run a full backup for a mac book reach so long time that full backup fails regularly now. The folder is arround 50GB but with many small files (more than 400000 files). It is a laptop with a ssd drive on a local 1gb/s network. Using sshd/rsync seams to reach it's limit. On the laptop: - cpu load is low (load average between 2 and 3) - disk I/O is low (less than 2MB/s with 200tps, averaged on 10s) - network load is very low On the server: - cpu load is low (load average between 1 and 2) - disk I/O is low - network load is very low I've checked the network connectivity between the laptop and the server for a 200MB file with scp: 40MB/s (limited by the router as they are located on a different VLAN) Is there a better way to configure this backup ?
