Not to my knowledge.
Out of interest, how big is your XML file currently, and is it
compressed or uncompressed?
Edit / Preferences / General / Compress files.
Thanks

Are there options to not replicate the full file?
- Loading the data from multiple files would not take any appreciable additional time.
- Loading the recent data first might save times, as really old data is off
screen in most accounts.
- The algorithm could even take into account keeping deeper time images of
low churn accounts so the first page could be populated and the rest installed
in the background.

Have you considered only backing up the log files then? They are your
incrementals...

One thing that complicates my gnucash life is the size and number of
backup files.
* It'd be nice, since most of the data is very historical, if it the
data was divided by time into multiple files, more finely in rear
time. Even if old files occasionally get updated by new work, they
would mostly be static.
* Another traditional way to keep backup sizes down is the Since-the
last-full and the Incremental since the last incremental.
* Since files are in xml, if they are line divided by transaction or
entry, text tools like good old sccs can discern differences.
