--- Comment #2 from Roland Haberkorn <mss...@fau.de> --- I did some further investigation... First thing to add: The ext4 file systems are hard-linked differential rsync backups of the real data on XFS. I changed the testcase by deleting the --link-dest option. When rsyncing from an XFS, the rsync process on the client uses about 3% RAM (of total 8GB). When rsyncing from an ext4, it uses up to about 50% RAM. This picture totally changes when I delete the option -H. In this case also copying from an ext4 uses only less than 2% RAM. My guess would be that perhaps -H breaks the incremental recursion when copying from an ext4. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
