Hi,

After a quick testcase, I can see what's happenning.  You have

>$ rsync -i -aPv --ignore-existing --files-from=/tmp/list /backups/
>ut00-s00010:/backups/ building file list ...
>3937 files to consider

and

cpool/b/c/5/bc5ea7a79a4824c6729645c66b562e6b

Each subirectory counts as a file to consider.

Steven
