Title:
  Rsync 3.1 is extremely slow (ext4 » ntfs)

Status in rsync package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am using rsync for many years for various backup scenarios. One
  backup goes from my KUbuntu 15.10 ext4 hard disk to a (Windos) ntfs
  share.

  With rsync 3.0.9 from Ubuntu Precise this was a very fast and
  comfortable task. Since rsync version 3.1.0 everything is extremely
  slow. So I tried many things from removing (-a -z ...) to adding (-W
  --modify-window=1 --inplace ...) rsync options, but no avail. There is
  also no difference if the synchronization is via network or USB. With
  other ext4 hard disks everything is just fine, as always.

  I wasted a lot of time searching, but the culprit is rsync 3.1 alone.
  Today I installed the old rsync version 3.0.9 from Ubuntu Precise and
  voilà rsync is working again.

  I do not understand why you provide a broken package and why it is
  broken for so many years. Or does nobody else use rsync between ext4
  and ntfs?
