Replicating 3h 22m remaining

Why is replicating taking so long?
Backup to a USB thumb drive runs at night. When I look at things in the AM I see replicating has over three hours to run. I don't remember this being the case in the past but it seems to be the norm lately.
I already have a backup job that backs up directly to the Acronis cloud and it take very little time. The two jobs run about 12 hours apart.

I figured it out, mostly.
I noticed that when I opened Acronis in the AM it showed replication as zero percent complete. Replication then started running immediately. Even though it gave a ridiculously long estimate of execution time it did run fairly quickly.
I changed my power settings to never sleep and the backup, including replication, was complete when I looked the next AM. The activity screen showed that replication ran immediately after the backup and took only a few minutes.
Seems that replication does not run when the system is asleep, even if the backup itself does run.

That is interesting about replication not running when the system is asleep, so guess the option in the Advanced Schedule settings to prevent sleep or hibernation doesn't apply here! Probably a good idea to prevent laptops from running down their battery power!
