@mckinley@twtxt.net My process hasn’t changed. (But the Gopher hole is gone. Here’s the file from 2023: https://movq.de/v/72fddfd8fe/2023-05-31–backups.txt )
What is your backup target btw? This NFS drive you’re speaking of is probably hosted on one of your local servers running in your apartment/house?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s no fun at all. I don’t like to throw away working hardware either, but I wouldn’t wait 7 hours (CPU-bound!) for my manual backup to complete if it could be done faster on a 10 year old laptop with AES-NI. How much data did you add?
$ units -t '500 gigabytes per 9 hours' 'megabytes per second'
15.432099
That’s a very unfortunate speed in the year 2024.
