[[!tag obnam-1.0-blocker]]

Obnam should be fast enough that it can back up my laptop's home
directory, overnight, encrypted, to an unencrypted USB hard disk.
That's 140 gigabytes of data, much of music and videos and photographs,
in 12 hours. --liw

I can now back up 200+ gigabytes of data without encryption, to an
encrypted USB drive, in four hours. --liw

However, removing a large number of checkpoints takes much too long,
making the total backup time much too long. --liw

Did a full backup to a fresh repository on a USB drive. 375 gigabytes of
data, about 200 thousand files, backup took almost exactly 8 hours,
not including cleaning up checkpoints, since there was a file that
went missing during the backup. Deleted the checkpoints manually:
that took another 15 minutes. That's fast enough, marking the bug [[done]].
