Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC_link - sleep every n files?

[Isaiah <zo...@zo...>]

    I don't know how BackupPC calls things, but during the actual rsync'ing
it's fine.  The *real* bug is in the kernel I'm using, which spends a lot
of time looking for free pages.

    However, I thought a reasonable workaround would be if BackupPC paused
for a moment.  Do you know how to make it do this?
