(So, disable it :)). How many users back up their systems daily? how many users back up their systems and do (which is, tbh, what I usually do) look at the logs of what's getting backed up to see an increase/decrease in the backup size? FWIW, I am not particularly with or against leaving it enabled, except the idea of "sticking with upstream defaults if it doesn't cause serious issues", especially as it's a runtime pref that the users can flip at any time. -- Ahmad Samir
