What is your IncrLevels setting? I bet you a donut that it is "1", which
means each incremental references the last full. So over time, more and
more files have changed from the last full.
Try setting IncrLevels to "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6". This means each
incremental will only back up files changed since the last incremental.
