- ioquatix 11y agoYes, it's completely rubbish, I agree. I'm pretty sure the people who are working on Time Machine are aware of this problem and I'm pretty sure it stems from the unreliability of mounting disk images over a network. Quite possibly due to hardware issues (e.g. flakey AirPort/Time Capsules) or problems with HFS+ filesystem. At a guess, I'd say they had to do their best to work around these issues. There is no excuse though, especially when it comes to backup.
