I have just installed a 300GB second drive in my G5 1.8SP and made it
my boot drive. I erased my Time Machine backup disk and started from
scratch. It took 20 hours to complete the first backup save and I see
this occupies 250GB of space whereas the used space on the drive being
backed up is only 130GB. I do not remember such a long time to back
up or such a large backup space usage under 10.5.1. By way of
comparison, SuperDuper clones the same disk in just over 6 hours.
Additionally under 10.5.2, Time Machine crashes and needs a forced
restart if the Mail window happens to be the open window when opening
Time Machine. This was not the case with 10.5.1.
Does anyone else have similar experiences or comments?

Happy Labour Day to all!
