v3 uses its own perl implementation to be able to compare to the compressed archived copy.. v4 uses the server's native version.

The docs for v4 say:

 * A modified rsync 3.0.9, called rsync_bpc, is used on the server
   side, with a C code layer that emulates all the file-system OS calls
   to be compatible with the BackupPC store. That means for rsync, the
   data path is now fully in complied C, which should mean a
   significant speedup. It also means many (but not all) of the rsync
   options are supported natively.

Is this not correct?

Or perhaps, can v4 use either this, or the native rsync?

thanks

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
