The backups are not incremental.  

The database backup makes a fresh backup each time, and puts it in a separate 
subdirectory. 

The forest backup backs up to the location you specify, and if there is already 
a backup there, it is smart about what to backup, and only backs up the changed 
part.  What it ends up backing up will depend on what merges happened since the 
last backup.  But it is not exactly incremental.

Sorry, going off of memory which may be bad, plus my experience that
doing a 2nd backup doesnt take very long.
I could be (proably am) totally wrong.

Hi,

Do you have a link to old post you mentioned? Or just the subject? I 
searched the archives, but didn't find much...

The backup (of a database) created using the web-interface, isn't 
incremental. Perhaps it is only "activated" when using scheduled backup,

and when setting the "max backups count" to 0 (unlimited)?
