I am using Duplicity 0.6.16, installed using Macports on Mac OS 10.6.8.
The Python process is using upwards of 3GB of RAM.
I am not doing anything exotic, only testing the app by backing up about
370GB to an external drive. My command arguments are:
/opt/local/bin/duplicity -v 8 --exclude /private/var/vm/ --exclude
/private/tmp --exclude /.Spotlight-V100 \
--exclude /.fseventsd --exclude-other-filesystems /
file:///Volumes/external/backup/
The command does eventually succeed but it slows everything to a crawl
for hours while it runs (even an incremental).
I found this FAQ for rdiff-backup:
http://rdiff-backup.nongnu.org/FAQ.html#leak
$ otool -L
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/duplicity/_librsync.so
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/duplicity/_librsync.so:
/opt/local/lib/librsync.1.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0,
current version 2.2.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
version 125.2.11)
$ ls -l /opt/local/lib/librsync.1.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 20 Nov 9 18:39
/opt/local/lib/librsync.1.dylib -> librsync.1.0.2.dylib
Thanks
