That's the Python interpreter and all the dependencies starting up. Shouldn't really matter if you are using it as a chron job.

I see. The screencast on their website made it seem very fast (which it may have been on a beefier machine than mine?), so I was surprised.

Pretty sure it's not.

I've never seen borg take 5+ seconds for anything except creating backups. The same `borg --help` command finishes in 0.4s on my machine. That's not blazing fast either but I'm okay with it.

They have been updated; the old screencasts were edited.
