> Currently, incremental backup is based on WAL files. Bulk data loading 
> bypasses WALs for obvious reasons, breaking incremental backups. The only way 
> to continue backups after bulk loading is to create new full backup of a 
> table. This may not be feasible for customers who do bulk loading regularly 
> (say, every day).
