Can someone explain what "dump frequently hangs" actually means?
Does it lock up the entire machine indefinitely (and if so, how long did you wait for it to (hopefully) recover)?
As in the process hanging. For me, it was fixed quite some time ago.

[1]: rsync is great for backups, and very fast, but there's the issue of modifying atimes. I committed a patch to ports/net/rsync which adds an --atimes flag, except its behaviour is not what you'd expect: the file which was copied, at the destination, has the correct atime (of the source), but the source itself ends up getting its atime modified, so you're essentially destroying the atime data on the source.
One of the reasons I dont use it for backups. Also its a pain with things like /dev and other special files.
