Smart update taking a long time to complete...

I'm also hoping that the cause of slow smart updates with a Mac OS X 10.6 / SD 2.6.1 configuration gets attention. My 250+GB boot drive clone has gone from about 10 minutes to almost 20, but worse, my nightly 800+GB Time Machine clone has jumped from under 4 hours to over 9... and this is on an 8 core 2.8GHz MacPro talking exclusively to internal SATA II hard drives.

After discussing this with Dave, there's nothing different in what SD 2.6.1 is doing, so hopefully there will be some "a ha" moment and a 2.6.2 will appear that returns smart update's efficiency.
