ATIH 2012 archive size
After moving from ATIH v11 to ATIH 2012 I'm finding that my single version archive files are massively smaller, from roughly 27GB to 17GB for the same partitions!!! I've done a test restore with 2012 which worked just fine, but is this normal? Compression was at the default level in all cases.
I'm not unhappy about this, but I am more than a bit puzzled.

It was the file exclusions. 2012 has default exclusions of *.tmp, *.tib, and *.~ but v11 has no default file exclusions. There is still a size difference but now only about 3%. Thanks.
Oh, and btw, 2012 is a heck of a lot quicker backing up than v11 :-)
