Yes, backing up from LVM snapshots is the best way (or, for Windows, use VSS), but at least you found a workaround...

That seems extraordinarily slow for rdiff-backup to backup a text file to a
local disk, even a file that is 3.9GB. Was the file changing (additional log

Yes, I think so, and I don't use LVM snapshots on this server. That's
probably the real trigger then.
