True. And if the client sends a file and "file changed during
processing.  File skipped.", then the server keeps counting.
We had a customer with a client who sends every night +70Gb
(Total number of bytes transferred: +70Gb).
A "q occup" shows only 16Gb. He was trying to backup a 15Gb file
which changed during processing, and the client tries that 4 times,
which makes +70Gb sending to the server every night which was complete
useless of course and a waste of bandwith.
