Hi,
I'm using BackupPC without major problems since a few years now. Our
main fileserver has now reached 3,3 TB and it takes 2 days (18 MB/s)
to do a full backup with tar method.
I'd like to find out if there is something I can do to speed up the full
backups without changing the hardware.

Hello,
Have you tried the rsync method, it should be way faster than tar.
Cheers,
Pedro

I think rsync is most useful with servers that have a slow network

After the 1st 2 fulls, rsync should be better if you have enabled checksum
caching. You do need plenty of RAM to hold the directory listing if you have a
large number of files.

There is nothing intrinsic about Windows XP Home, cygwin/rsyncd
(especially with cygwin 1.7), and BackupPC that should be causing your
backups to be significantly worse than backing up a Linux system.
Are those other machines also Windows XP Home or are they linux?
The other machines are

The one bit of info I forgot to mention was that I had ssh-agent
supplying the password (or not). I had assumed it was working because
