rsync'ing the BackupPC data pool is generally recommended against. The
number of hardlinks causes an explosive growth in memory consumption by
rsync and while you may be able to get away with it if you have 20GB of
data (depending on how much memory you have); you will likely run out of

Hey, folks.
I've come back into the arena of using BackupPC.
At the moment, one of my main goals is to rsync the pool and whatever else
to an offsite storage area.
I'm a student with access to a server for storing about 20GB of stuff on. I
can use the intranet and rsync to move stuff onto it.
