Ahhh... not easy of course... since few people post specifics about
either their BackupPC or their archives.

But just as a swag, I would say that when you have north of a million
pool files and maybe a couple dozen backups that it starts taking tens
of hours to rsync a BackupPC archive on a normal desktop with say a
few gigs of memory. My numbers may be way wrong, but that has been my
experience and my sense from reading between the lines of what others
post...
