Today I discovered this blog on Matt Heaton’s blog (http://www.mattheaton.com/?p=179) about CPanel Backup.

Bluehost experiences the same difficulties that I experience when performing backups (likely much worse), and they are working on a patch using the linux kernel to determine the list of changed files instead of performing a hard disk scan for changed files.   I recommend reading his blog for more details!

I look forward to seeing this addon released because it can help all system admins perform quicker backups on linux!

   Until now, there never was one. After the site redesign (That I will be writing about shortly), I added one in. Hope this helps!
