Mine wasn't that fast, 10 am to 11:53, unless I missed an update playing with something else. I have found that amanda has grown a facility to initiate a backup on demand from the client when a machine comes online from being shut down for the night, so I am contemplating doing that to my latest cnc machine build, which will be run by a Raspberry-Pi 3b. That, fits in your shirt pocket SBC, has way more than enough cpu to run a time critical job, some parts of which take sub-millisecond response times to run well. It has a 4 core, 64 bit cpu in it. And then, while I'm typing this, it now says 12:53, so thats an hour between the last 2 "snapshots". > > I do believe I am back in business!
