This morning my backups are taking a long time, how can I tell what tar is 
doing?

Previous incremental backups have taken up to 10 minutes, full backups up to 20 
minutes (fairly new system and I haven't move most of my files onto the system 
yet).

This morning the first incremental ran for almost an hour until I killed it. 
The tar process was using 100% of a CPU, and the files.tar.gz was still zero 
bytes long.  I restarted it, and the tar process has 24 minutes of CPU time 
with no recorded output.

Question 1: Should I expect to see the tar file have zero bytes until the end, 
or should I see the file size increase as it goes?

Question 2: How can I debug this?  Is there a way to get debug output from tar 
as run from nssbackup 0.2.1?
