[OT] Hetzner Box night backup takes 6 hours?!
-
But, for the record, I updated my backups config to use SSHFS instead of CIFS earlier and it seem using Tarball backups SSHFS isn't any faster at all. If anything it seems like perhaps it's a bit slower (at least the one that ran tonight was slower than 6 out of 8 of the last CIFS backups). I've read on here that rsync backups are much faster with SSHFS though.
I'm looking forward to when we can do multiple backup locations, which I'm hoping will allow me to do rsync to one destination and tarball to another.

@jdaviescoates the rsync may be doing a 'cat' stream over ssh vs the tgz having to complete locally before transferring.
Hmm, wasn't there a way to do that with tgz as well?

Yes, waiting for multiple backup locations.
