Hmm, when other people complained about slow rdiff-backups I thought
the problem was CPU usage but obviously this isn't the problem in your
case.

Try editing your Globals.py file and increasing blocksize and
conn_blocksize by a lot.  For instance, try:

blocksize = 524288
conn_bufsize = 1572864

I'd be curious to see if this makes much of a difference.
