Hi

I make once in a month full backups. This forces duplicity to start hudreths
of gpg processes. Is this really necessary? The problem with this is that gpg
locks itself into memory (to avodi leaking passphrase) so this situation eats
up reasonable amount of memory. All of the gpg processes are sleeping, so I'm
not sure whether they are really needed...

Thanks
Michal
