from what i remember of rsync before v3, is that it used to generate the
full file list before it did the sync. After v3 it did an incremental list.
This resulted in much lower memory utilization. Therefore as you use the
old version it may be worth checking any limits set on the daemon. It also
may be worth syncing smaller parts of the tree if its large to reduce the
memory consumption.
