Restoring from CrashPlan. Mac client has been stuck loading the file list for an hour. Took about 30 seconds to get file from Web interface.

@mjtsai big fan of @arqbackup here with Google Nearline Storage. I own the encryption keys and there’s a command line tool.

@steipete @arqbackup I use Arq as well. Second choice for restores due to Glacier delay. Great overall, but tons of issues with 5.x.

Arq Backup ‏@arqbackup Jul 19

@mjtsai Still tons of issues?
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai Jul 19

@arqbackup Most are fixed as of 5.1.8. Still problems with validation/enforcement and large files that change during upload.
Arq Backup ‏@arqbackup Jul 19

@mjtsai Working on validation performance. What’s the problem with large files changing?
Michael Tsai ‏@mjtsai Jul 19

@arqbackup I have e-mailed about that. Basically, the backup never completes. It keeps going back and uploading new changed pieces.
Arq Backup ‏@arqbackup Jul 19

@mjtsai OK. If a file changes between scan and upload, it goes around and scans/uploads the file afterward.

@arqbackup Right. Since the file keeps changing it goes around and around. Backup never completes and also blocks other backups.
