I am seeing a very strange problem after transitioning to backuppc
3.0. Backups are taking considerably longer, and i am frequently
getting out of memory kernel panics messages dumped to the syslog.
My previous config was a P3-450 w/ 256MB ram, 10GB Internal drive,
and a 700GB external RAID-5 array. This machine ran debian 3.0 and
Backuppc 2.x ( i frequently updated it).
The new machine is a P3-800 w/ 256MB ram, 10GB Internal drive, and a
2.0TB external RAID-6 array. This machine is a fresh install of
debian 4.x and runs Backuppc 3.0
Both machines had aproximately 800MB of swap, and were configured to
do backups via RSYNC/RSYNCD or SMB.
I know that the first machine was slow, it took a whole day to do a
100GB backup over a 100Mbit link. But the second machine is taking
many days to complete the same job. I started a full backup on the
3rd of october and it is still running today.
I have already run extensive diagnostics on all the hardware, so i
know that the machine is fine.
Before i start racking my brain, i wanted to find out if anyone else
had experienced this type of problem after moving to backuppc 3?
Has anyone seen memory leaks with backuppc running on debian 4?
Thanks
