The 2.4.5 options of server and calcsize are very fast.
Fast is good. Fast and 'accurate' is much better.
In your experience are the estimates a good match for the
actual amount of data being backed up, full and incrementals?
After generating a quick perl to extract info from a
sendsize.XXXXX.debug and comparing it to the ORIG-kB column in the mail
report, it appears that calcsize is sort of a conservative estimator.
It is very accurate on the level 0 and tends to overestimate the level
1,2,3,4.
The current run I had only had two level 0 and a bunch of level 1. So I
will monitor for a few days more and see how the level 0 estimates do
when I have more data.
If you think the list would like to see the data then let me know and I
will send it out. I didn't want to in-line a bunch of data. Is it ok
to send attachments to this list?
