I do not have any serious objections against Python. Its widely used, and the limiting time factor is IO efficiency, and not the question about the fasted for-loop ever possible. Concerning a "major rewrite": for me this is out of scope. I was rather thinking about a code review. I first want to figure out whether there are maybe places which can be optimized significantly, e.g. excessive readir() stuff or something like this, or any other duplicate file IO which doesn't hurt on small backup sets. Also before a major code rewrite could be tackled at all, one would first have to understand what rdiff-backup is doing beneath its skin. Otherwise it would not be clear what the precise goal of such a major rewrite should be. Ok: to produce something not worse than rdiff-backup. But to clarify this, you first have to understand the existing program. Cheers, Claus > > I like Python. And I like rdiff-backup.
