Hi,

maybe try "dsync -o mail_fsync=never".

That didn't seem to make much of a difference. On a 3.1GB backup it

shaved off 5 seconds. dsync's time was over 6 minutes with or without the mail_fsync=never. rsync copied the same 3.1GB mailbox in 15 seconds. It seems to me that dsync *should* be able to be just as fast, but it currently is spending way too much time doing something. What is it? ...Jeff
