OK, so not much can be done to reduce usage. However, I've noticed that several files are being transferred several times. My setup is as follows: I have my annex on my laptop, and on the usb drive I have 2 annexes: a full backup annex, and an archive annex (BTW, why don't full backup annexes count as archive annexes?). I have some files archived, so the archive annex is not empty. I've noticed that some files are constantly being dropped and transferred (it appears that files in archives suffer from this problem, but not all though). I attach the log file. -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler
