Yeah, might be that this is the bottleneck. In this case I indeed suggest to split the backup in two parts: Rdiff-backup locally (quick, robust, no need for transmissions) and let rsync do the transmission to the target. The latter might be a lot quicker than a transmission using rdiff-backup, for rsync usually supposes two files to be identical if filesize and timestamp match. _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at rdiff-backup-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
