perhaps i'm ignorant of BackupPC_ArchiveHost functionality, on first glance
it appears to resemble tar. rsync and storebackup offer the advantages that
subsequent transfers do not need to repeat the transfer of existing files,
and they handle hardlinks. storebackup also has the winning property of
requiring far less memory to handle the hardlinks.
