The VIA C3's aren't the most cpu efficient either. Pure arithmetic CPU on
a 1ghz C3 is roughly equivelent to a Celeron 300mhz system [SiSoft
Sandra]. They are nice for embedded/low power though if you don't need
the horse power!

Charles,
In my particular case it was primarily CPU bound as you can see from the
time info. The CPU was between 95-100% busy the whole time. This is what
concerned me. Having a backup program being IO bound would hardly be a
surprise to anyone. Being CPU bound was somewhat of a surprise to me. Of
course, for those of you with 3.2Ghz versus 1Ghz machines are likely no
longer CPU bound.

All that said, it would be interesting to do some benchmarking to see
where time is actually being spent -- waiting for network latency,
waiting for the filesystem or doing things in userspace. oprofile should
easily distinguish between the latter two cases; more primitive tools
(comparing wall-clock/user/system execution, for instance) should
provide more general data on the former.
