Speaking of better estimates:

The compression rate on incremental backups tends to vary heavily based
on the size of the incremental. This method computes the compression
rate much better by only basing the average on similar sizes from the
past.

This looks interesting and with a later review may be good to bring in. Estimation, with no crashes, is always ripe for fiddling. I'll ask around for some opinions too after I review it.
