COWABUNGA DUDES!
🥷🐢😬



I haven't used CrashPlan in years and seems to be a completely different setup since I last used them. Is starting the process new supposed to be the most glacial thing ever? I've been sat at the 'preparing for backup' stage for an hour or two, and it's counting down 230k~ files or so incredibly slowly... but doesn't appear to be actually doing anything. I'm in MacOS and activity monitor says it's not using any CPU cycles, barely any RAM, and a grand total of 500mb read by the application. I know lots of small files are often pretty slow, but this is beyond that... the trial will be over before it even does anything!

Had a feeling despite all the changes, that Java would still be brewing underneath it all. I know it's been bugging me to update so I"ll do that now and see if that helps at all.

File count 235,073 at 1:10 then 235,242 at 3:18. Sometimes number goes up, sometimes goes down. Complete lack of feedback on what it's doing is what's annoying me.

e:

Updated JVM, rebooted machine, CrashPlan still sitting there the same way. Decided to start from scratch and isolated a single folder with 9 items in it at 200mb to backup. CrashPlan restarts, sees 9,000 files and decides they take up 1.4gb. Still isn't loving doing anything. Like, seriously?
