Sigh, the sense of the switch is backward. If you include -g, garbage
collection does not happen. So, what I should have said is:


Yes, the backup will have less impact WITH the -g switch, but if
you have a time when there's less load, then do one backup then
without the -g to reduce the overall load during busy times.

Duh...
