If you do not set MEORYEFFICIENTBACKUP, then it will pull down the file list
for all the filesystems it's working on at the moment.  If your
resourceutilization is set to e.g. 2 or 3, this might just be one at a time.
If it's set to 10, it might be 4 at a time.

If you do MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP, then it will just pull down whatever set of
directories it's working on at the moment.
