Carl, I am trying to calculate the amount of disk space used by a single machine. Currently I run du -hs /var/lib/backuppc/pc/machinename to get the disk space used by machinename. The problem is that this is very disk intensive and can cause problems when I am running backups around the clock. I was wondering if I could get the same data by parsing the XferLOG. I suspect not because of things like compression, etc., but I figured I would ask to be sure.
