Question #129584 on Simple Backup changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/129584

scar posted a new comment:
just wanted to add that creating the SNAR file takes a VERY long time.
the time it takes seems to be proportional to the size of the backup, as
the incremental backups converted rather quickly but the full backup
took about 44 hours.  the full backup was a paltry 4.2 GB.  i can't
imagine what it would be like to convert the backups i have of the
datacenter (~700 GB).... if the process is linear, i figure that would
take about 305 days to complete.

therefore, i would highly recommend that users upgrade to the 0.11
version of sbackup and start taking backups which will be created using
the v1.5 snapshot, rather than having to go through this upgrade process
(which i am needing to do in order to correctly 'revert').  though, if
you're reading this here and now, it's probably too late.  perhaps this
information could be put someplace more prominent...
