> It takes about 2 hours to create only the file list. Hi! We have a similar problem as we are running dirvish to produce nightly live backups. The file list building process takes too long. I have noticed that building the file list is not done in parallel on the remote host and the local host. Wouldn't that be an option to speed up the process? Build the file list in parallel on the source side and the destination side (there are already two rsync processes running anyway) and compare the outcome when both have finished. This could easily reduce the time needed before actually syncing by a factor of 2. Are there any ideas in this direction?
