 * I have install wordpress twice today.
    Each time with updraft (ofcourse) The 
   initial backup on each fresh install took FOREVER. Then I learned multiple backups
   were created. I did not leave the page or do anything. I walked away from the
   compute. came back during the second install and clicked STOP on the current 
   status. There were two running at the same time.
 * this is more of an FYI than anything else.

 * Hi,
 * Could you send us copies of the backup logs. We should be able to find out what
   was going on.
 * They will be too long to post here directly, but you can use an online service
   such as [pastebin](http://pastebin.com/), and post the link here

 * Sorry I missed the notification that you replied.
    I do not have the logs at 
   this point. I really like the plugin and will know to keep the logs available
   for my issue next time. I have installed many times since without issue on the
   same server. So it might have been a plugin conflict with iThemes security plugin,
   a server issue or has been fixed with updates since then.
 * Thanks for the great plugin..
