Well it was origninaly designed to run function many times in parallel

imagine this small script:

Yes it provides its own means to restore permissions and owner information. a .conf subdirectory is created in the host's directory. a file named rights keeps all these information. in fact, when a file is add in the current backup, cvs-conf retrieves all information from the original file add adds it to the rights file. -- Sebastien J.
