For protocol 30, the use of a hashtable on the sending side allows us to more efficiently convey to the receiver what files are linked together. This reduces - the amount of data sent over the socket by a considerable margin, and - moves the in-memory storage of the device+inode information from the - receiving side (for protocols < 30) to the sending side (note that - older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on both - sides). + the amount of data sent over the socket by a considerable margin + (rather than adding more data), and limits the in-memory storage of + the device+inode information to just the sending side for the new + protocol 30, or to the receiving side when speaking an older protocol + (note that older rsync versions kept the device+inode information on + both sides).
