I do SuperDuper backups with various folders excluded. Short of actually doing a backup is there any way to get SuperDuper to tell me how much space it is going to need.

Sorry, no: we don't have a way to dry-run the copy.

That's a shame. Ironically even since I posted that message I just had a backup run out of space, trouble is it takes 45 minutes to get that far.
