The particular instance has been running for 105 minutes.  However I've 
let jobs run for over 8 hours and they still never finished.

The fileset for this test backup is just /etc/bacula which totals about 
18K.  When I run the first backup that completes, it only takes about 10 
seconds to run.

Thanks,

Drew
