I've not looked into it, but I wonder what it is about the file contents that causes a frequent change, and whether the format can be adjusted to reduce the effect, or make it more easily rsyncable. > Does anyone have an opinion whether it's still relevant for XO-1.5? Yes, I think it is, but I don't know how large the impact is yet. It was noticeable on XO-1 because olpc-update (rsync) spent a fair while on it each time. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
