That's metadata. The _data_ hasn't changed. I repeat it is wasteful  
to back up *data* that has not changed. Some programs are smart  
enough to do this.

I've also pointed out that we can have it both ways, if we want.  
Apparently some people would rather back up the same identical data  
over and over than have a program smart enough to tell the  
difference. I don't get it and hope that Kern and Co. proceed with  
making bacula smarter over time.
