Package: rdiff-backup Version: 1.1.5-4 Severity: important rdiff-backup gets the job done but is so slow. On my 1GHz computer, it makes the whole backup to a USB2 disk CPU bound. This is painful because it turns a weekly backup of 40GB into a 2 hours nightmare because of the fan noise. Whatever the media (USB2, SATA or network), rdiff-backup is CPU bound. I don't understand why because traditional rsync incremental backups are not.
