The nightly pool check (BackupPC_nightly) only traverses a portion of the
pool each night. See $Conf{PoolSizeNightlyUpdatePeriod}. The default is
16, meaning it takes 16 nightly runs to get through the whole pool.
It looks like your installation is quite small, so you could
set $Conf{PoolSizeNightlyUpdatePeriod} to 1.
