talkgroup backups

I do nightly backups for the site, and currently the archive is 106.8 MB.

Interestingly, it fluctuates, sometimes getting slightly smaller. I suspect that is neat compression magic going on with subtle text changes each day.

It’s kinda neat to think we are adding ~0.1 MB every day. I’m reporting this now, to compare later. :slight_smile:

Oh yeah! That isn’t files, er, uploads. I’d have to go lookup the size of the bucket it is in, but I think it is only a gig or so. And it is mostly me having fun with gifs. Also, whenever anyone links to an image we copy it over so we have a “local” copy.

We’ve got a nice machine running here. :slight_smile:

Looking at those dates and the sequence… compression is weird. :thinking:
