There's no way that that much stuff could have changed on this system. Here's some info from previous reports: Feb 20 backup /dev/hda1 1 290350 272640 93.9 1:303032.2 3:081453.1 Feb 19 backup /dev/hda1 0 18282101114784 61.0 6:192938.1 12:561436.8 Feb 18 backup /dev/hda1 1 5660 960 17.0 0:02 512.1 0:02 551.7 Feb 15 backup /dev/hda1 0 18282401114688 61.0 6:402786.4 14:131306.5 Feb 14 backup /dev/hda1 1 5820 992 17.0 0:02 566.0 0:02 593.6 Feb 13 backup /dev/hda1 1 5830 992 17.0 0:02 533.4 0:02 587.6 The only difference I can think of is, this past week, I started getting STRANGE backups for this disk. Looking into that told me that the files changed while the backup was running. Understandable, but odd that I hadn't seen those for several weeks, and now suddenly see them every day. So I added /tmp and /dev to the exclude file yesterday.
