Update:

with "local" storage backend on NFS server, speed of injection of files 
into the s3ql is higher (factor 3) than with local and sshfs backend (was 
1-1.5MB/s) - speed is not my concern, any component crashing and/or 
rendering this backup space corrupt is!:

Load is bit higher than with local and sshfs too:
top - 13:01:42 up 17:39,  4 users,  load average: 4.99, 4.06, 2.10

But I'm suspecting something else going on, on the system:

The lines in bold are changing: the last two are easy to understand 
(storage backend & s3ql filesystem), but the first one has my /root/.s3ql 
cache directory. If it's going to continu like that, that would explain why 
there was nothing in the log file (disk full?). But that should not have 
happened because, with sshfs backend I got 70GB of real data uploaded and 
now with NFS also 60GB+.

Network speed did go down from the aforementioned 5MB/s towards 1MB/s, load 
has not exceeded 5.

Going to an acceptance phase with real data now, will report back if the 
symptoms happen again.


*Bottom-line:*Unclear what happened with my test setup earlier (it did 
"lock" more than three times in a row), but having restarted from scratch 
(and a clean reboot of all components) did proof that both NFS & sshfs 
storage backends with s3ql do work, whereas the s3ql is exposed towards the 
network by CIFS. Network bandwidth variance is high.
