For small files, bup's compression won't be as good as xdelta's, but for
anything over a few megabytes in size, bup's compression will actually

How does hashsplitting work? It's deceptively simple. We read through the
file one byte at a time, calculating a rolling checksum of the last 64

can handle. But that's not the same kind of "frequently" we're talking
about. Imagine you're backing up all the files on your disk, and one of
-those files is a 100 GB database file with hundreds of daily users. You

disk changes so frequently you can't even back up all the revisions even if
you were backing stuff up 24 hours a day. That's "frequently.")
