I meant to add that another approach is to change the "estimate" option
for the disktype used in the DLE(s) for that client machine to something
other than "client". Depending on your situation, one of the other two
options may given you a good-enough estimate of the size of the dumps
in a lot less time... which would probably have the additional effect of
letting the overall dump complete more quickly.
