My drive is connected via USB.
I think we're on the right track. What version of USB?
Before using rdiff-backup I used just rsync, where the initial backup
took also quite long, but the following backups took ~20 minutes.
rdiff-backup will always be slower than rsync, since rdiff-backup
keeps previous versions, unlike rsync.
I thought rdiff-backup like rsync keeps track of the file metadata like
size and creation date to skip reading the data again if the file has
not been updated?
That should cause the subsequent runs to be much faster even with slow
disks.
