Several people have reported this, so this makes it more likely it is a bug in BackupPC. I would like to replicate it. This happens in a part of the BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO code where a large file has deltas (changes). Since the file is large it is uncompressed to disk in the RStmp file, and that file is then read to process the deltas as the new updated file is generated and written to disk. Let me look at the code and I'll get back to you offline with some debugging suggestions. Craig ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
