Resource limits being hit

    During the “Compressing files as TarGz.” Phase of backing up my website I hit a resource limit on disk i/o of 1 MB/s

    It completes the back up, but I get an email from my host twice a month about this. Is there any way to tell the plugin what my resource limits are and then stay under that? I run this twice a month in the early mornings, It could take 10 times as long and I wouldn’t care, I just want to stop getting emails about it.

    CPU Usage is fine. With reduce server load set to ‘maximum’ on it takes 1082 seconds to complete. with ‘disabled’ selected, it took 608 seconds. But the only fault I got was the I/O fault no matter what I do.

    Total back up size is 390 MB.

    Thanks.

    Sorry about the delayed response, I actually want to recommend you to switch hosting ??
    the cheapest hosting I’m using for testing now, about < 1.5$ / month has disk IO limit of 3MB/s and most hosting providers give you free hosting migration.

    About the workaround solution for this, you already enabled reduce server load to the maximum so it seems like all I can recommend you to do.

    Thanks for the response. What with the pandemic and all, I’ve been busy and I apologize my acknowledgement/response took so long.

    I should clarify, the plugin still works and I’m grateful for it. I’m running it around 2 am when no one is on my website and at most I’d be limited for 10-20 minutes. So it isn’t the end of the world.

    I’m just looking for a way to slow it down so my host stops sending me an email twice a month when I run the backups.
