OK, for SSH, I'm already using -C switch... Things I don't need to back up are excluded... I'm actually doing 8 remote backups, which are starting alltogether at 21 PM... Until now, I didn't have too many troubles with bandwidth/time, but I'll re-evaluate if it will come to a bottleneck. So, in the end: is there any way to optimise my backups? Would the application of more levels of incrementals, be helpful?
