Some more notes...

I tried also setting up a separate host to back up the same filesystem.This,
in theory, should mean that it doesn't refer to the saved data at all.  But the
result of it was that it simply hung using 100% of the CPU at the end and
ultimately failed.

So far I have only observed the problem with the rsync backend; tar 
seems to work.

This is becoming a deeply concerning problem and help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
