Ah, I misunderstood and thought @WordtotheBird was suggesting to run it on my (Linux) fileserver. Wiztree reports that the whole directory without any excludes is 173GB.
Total wipe and recreate of the storage before I started it again. WebUI reports 1 revision, instead of the ~70 I had had before.
The backup log has this at the end:
BACKUP_STATS Files: 817130 total, 149,868M bytes; 817072 new, 149,252M bytes.2019-07-16 03:10:56.589 INFO BACKUP_STATS File chunks: 30191 total, 149,875M bytes; 7378 new, 38,585M bytes, 24,403M bytes uploaded.2019-07-16 03:10:56.589 INFO BACKUP_STATS Metadata chunks: 62 total, 259,603K bytes; 62 new, 259,603K bytes, 78,809K bytes uploaded.2019-07-16 03:10:56.589 INFO BACKUP_STATS All chunks: 30253 total, 150,128M bytes; 7440 new, 38,838M bytes, 24,480M bytes uploaded.
Check log:
snap | rev | | files | bytes | chunks | bytes | uniq | bytes | new | bytes | [Redacted]_Backup | 1 | @ 2019-07-16 02:01 -hash | 817130 | 149,868M | 27591 | 92,566M | 27591 | 92,566M | 27591 | 92,566M | [Redacted]_Backup | all | | | | 27591 | 92,566M | 27591 | 92,566M | | |
So what this seems to suggest is I was mislead by Windows being bad at reporting how much disk space it’s using coupled with the webUI lacking a way to show how large the backup source is?
