You know what the weirdest part there is?  It's clearly divided it
up into 8 runs, it just isn't running them *at the same time*.

And it's not like it's trying to do the "one portion every night"
thing, either; when that job finishes, the next one runs
immediately.  ... the hell?

Also, $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 1; just for the record.
