Does BackupPC redownload all files to make a new "full" download, or does it 
simply "fill in" the last good full backup and all incrementals since?

The host I'm backing up takes 2+ days to backup, so it would be great if it 
could just fill in + move forward rather than download all again. 

I'm really impressed with the ease of use of this software! It's running nicely 
on my DNS-323 (had to turn compression off though, because it was taking years 
to backup otherwise).

1.18 MB/s  (not sure what other people are getting for speed on these things).
