So neither of my backups worked. I haven't done any investigation yet
because I'm busy at work. But to quote a movie, this was the kind of
thing I would have liked to know yesterday. It would have been nice
to ask Amanda to generate a list of files to be backed up, and have
Amanda give me an error message in return.

Right now, my two DLEs are 57GB and 173GB. The compressed backups
are 35GB and 85GB. So my compression is already working. The doc says
"client fast" is the default compression, so it should be compressed
before it hits the wifi. But I'd rather not have my wifi clogged
for 12-16 hours doing backups, even once a month.
