partclone take 100% CPU

[Paweł Szlubecki]

When I ran partclone.exetfs on remotely and piping result over network partclone executing extremely slow and use 100% of cpu. Partclone was ran on fully upgraded Ubuntu Precise distribution(Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS).

I used command:
ssh ....... "nice ionice -c3 partclone.extfs -q -c -s /dev/vg_san_1/BACKUP_DEV -o - || echo partclone.extfs >> /tmp/BACKUP_ERROR ; } | nice ionice -c3 gzip " > some_file

Problem was resolved in mainstream (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3509757&group_id=115473&atid=671650) at version 0.2.47.

To verify bug I build from source that package taken from Ubuntu Sucy. After upgrade partclone looks working correctly.

Partclone versions:
U. Precise: 0.2.43-1
U. Saucy: 0.2.51-1ubuntu2
