Re: [BackupPC-users] 38GB file backup is hanging backuppc (more info and more questions)

since you are already doing a database dump and backing that up, why not split the file up in to chunks? if you use something like rar or 7z you can split the compressed files up nicely. you could also do some magic with tar and gz. This would save rsync the headache of md4/md5 on such a large file, which is likely where the issue is. If you break the file up into 700MB chunks or something you will be in good shape.

RStmp is a temporary file used to store the uncompressed pool file,
which is needed for the rsync algorithm. It's only used for larger
files - smaller files are uncompressed in memory.
RStmp is independent of --whole-file.
