Question #115570 on Duplicity changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/115570
Rodrigo Alvarez posted a new comment: I'd like to follow up on this. I just compressed ~300GB using 250 MB volume sizes. In short, on a small white box running Ubuntu 10 and duplicity 0.6.08b, it took about 25 hrs @ 4MBps and compressed to 97% of original. Mostly files are photos in RAW (.CR2). The subsequent incremental backups will be small and quick so this very long first full backup is bearable. I had no expectations for compression, nevertheless, context aware compression would be nice to make compression efficient. Possible bug: Noteworthy is the output of a very large signatures file: 2147536063 bytes (~2GB) $ ls -l *signatures* -rw------- 1 Owner Group 2147536063 2010-07-04 23:56 duplicity-full-signatures.20100704T055652Z.sigtar.gpg This is not a problem for me but it could create conflicts for other users with file transfer limits as stated before, and therefore this signatures file should not exceed the volume size. --------------[ Backup Statistics ]-------------- StartTime 1278223013.20 (Sat Jul 3 22:56:53 2010) EndTime 1278312373.73 (Sun Jul 4 23:46:13 2010) ElapsedTime 89360.53 (24 hours 49 minutes 20.53 seconds) SourceFiles 98281 SourceFileSize 355038288199 (331 GB) NewFiles 98281 NewFileSize 355038288199 (331 GB) DeletedFiles 0 ChangedFiles 0 ChangedFileSize 0 (0 bytes) ChangedDeltaSize 0 (0 bytes) DeltaEntries 98281 RawDeltaSize 355027466567 (331 GB) TotalDestinationSizeChange 344039855481 (320 GB) Errors 0 ------------------------------------------------- You received this question notification because you are a member of duplicity-team, which is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
