        bandwidth is the limit if you can both encrypt and compress faster
        than the network bandwidth... also, the bonus of the compression
        depends of the data and can also be gained by the normal 
        rsync-rsyncd... 
        backuppc rsync cant because doesnt support compression, so
        the main question might be how much the data compress

Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a 
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are 
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger.  It works the same in every country.
