What version is the USB connection? That affects speed bigtime. We have garmin basecamp running from a small NAS and it takes 1.5+ hours to move 2GB of map data out over USB to a single hand held meter.

I doubt that it is your cpu. If you can get drivers, consider upgrading the USB.

Your find command to delete files is a very standard thing to do.

Regarding rsync - if it takes a long time to do the same backup where there are lots of identical untouched files in the archiove and the source, then it is an rsync parameter problem. By default rsync uses filetimes.

To preserve filetimes in your rsync:

Do this
Code:
rsync -avp  location1 location2

So when location1 files have the same timestamp as on location2, they are skipped over.
Also, do not use -bwlimit, it throttles throughput.

Can you please post your rsync command?
