[rdiff-backup-users] Any Thoughts on Why rdiff-backup Is So Slow?

[Robinson, Eric]

Using rsync to copy a local directory to a remote computer takes a 67 seconds. Using rdiff-backup to backup the same local directory to a remote computer takes 11 minutes. Why does rdiff-backup go so slow? Does the number of increments on  the remote computer influence the speed? We keep 30 previous daily increments
