Hum i cannot directly use the FS i have no access to the NFS server that 
is on the hosting company side i just have access to the webserver that 
use the nfs partition to store  it's content. Right now i also mount the 
nfs share on the backup server so that way i have not the overhead of 
ssh in the mix (but yes i am on a 1000mbps  lan for the NFS and backup 
server).

for my understanding  rsync had allways seems to be the most efficient 
of the two but i never challenged this "fact" ;p

  i will have a look at tar and see if i can work with it .

If any other person has some experience in it feel free to contribute :)

regards,
Jean.
