Description of my issue: I have set up Akeeba Backup to back my site up every 3 days with the backup file being copied to Dropbox. Last week the size of the backup file suddenly grew by 100MB from 127.50MB to 227.03MB which is the size that it has remained at in the subsequent 3 backups. As it was now over 150MB then Dropbox would not accept the file and so I have changed the settings to split the jpa archive at 99.98MB.
Although I have fixed the immediate issue of files not being uploaded to Dropbox (a manual 'Backup Now' proved that it worked OK) I am puzzled/concerned as to where the extra 100MB has come from, especially when there is very little that has changed on the site - one or two more contacts in the RSMail subscribers list will be about all. I have attached the last frontend log file as this was the latest to run automatically overnight last night and would be grateful if you could point me in the right direction as my initial scanning of the file is not coming up with any answers.
Thank you
David Anson
