Public bug reported:

I have ubuntu 9.10 x64. I am trying to back up my 96gb home folder to a
120gb ntfs external drive. When I run take snapshot It wil take a while
and eventually say done. However when I checked the first time it only
backed up about 11gb. The only exclusion I have is .backup so its not
skipping them. If I run take snapshot again it updates the backup with
another 11gb of data. I have run it 3 times and it has only so far
backed up about a third of my data. Is there some reason It's doing this
and can I fix it? In the meantime I'll run the backup another 6 times or
so till it gets everything. If you have need any additional information
please ask.

Thanks,
Reffu
