Hi All, Continued good results with rsync 3.0 but I have been noticing that incremental no-change backups of my Home folder (15Gb, 50,000+- files) have been using up on average about 500+-MB of disk space. Thinking back a ways to rsync3.0pre7, or earlier, each incremental took up very little space for no-changes, maybe 50+Mb of disk space. I can't seem to see where this is coming from as the output shows mainly just the list of files checked and very little copying. Nothing obvious accounts for this amount of disk space used. I am using: rsync -aHAXN --fileflags --link-dest=Path_To_Previous_Backup -v -- progress as options. Any thoughts on this anyone? Rob D
