I know, but in my case, when i've changed compression to 0, backup was already running, thus it was not affected by this change. Anyway, next backups should run a little bit faster as they don't have to compress every file. > Back to OP - from the rsync_bpc args you sent, it looks like you have > XferLogLevel set to 0.

Very large file would produce some output on strace and is not my case. > What is the version of your remote rsync? I was on 3.1.0, but i've updated to the latest one.

This is a new install, previously (about 15-20 days ago) i was on XFS and even before on ext4. ZFS is the fastest one (particularry when deleting huge directories with tons of hardlinks made by rsnapshot) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
