Have you tried cranking the shell resource limits for the
rdiff-backup process, especially the data size and maximum
number of file descriptors?


I wrote a trivial rdiff-backup front-end that does this for
me.  It's at:
        http://www.mewburn.net/luke/src/do-rdiff-backup

I've attached the config file I'm using.
It uses /z/backup/ as the backup partition, and I've currently
disabled automatically clean out old incrementals.


Cheers,
Luke.
