Ok, I give it a shot. Changed the Xfer method to rsync, updated to
rsync 3.0.2 (I know I will not benefit much because of BackupPC's own
rsync perl module) and added the --checksum-seed option.

Right now the rsync process is consuming 370 MB and is still growing.
The file server has 7.000.000 files. Let's see what happens...
