i love seeing more innovation with backups . can you talk about the agent ? many of them drain the battery and overload cpu .

It uses restic (github.com/blobbackup) to create backups every hour by default. After the initial backup, the load on battery and cpu should be pretty minimal since the agent is idle most of the time (because incremental backups are fairly quick).
