I looked on my own setup to answer this question, since I used
a similar method under 3.x and have been backing up the local
systems under 4.x since the alpha versions.
Turns out I just use a pretty vanilla rsync/ssh setup, and set
up ssh keys so the box can log into itself without issues.
That's what I'll do if no other solution is available, but too bad
to add the ssh overhead when it was so easy to use plain rsync on v3
You can research options for encryption to change to a lower overhead method and disable compression if it's on by default.
Thanks,
Richard
