Actually, I didn't have any expectations about how long it should take
and I am not finding fault with duplicity.  I put that information in
there to give context for my situation.  I do find it interesting that
a 6GB backup took 55 hours over a wired connection.  So far in the 2.5
days duplicity has run it has achieved 12GB.

About 100GB.  Since 2.5 days got me 12GB compressed, I figure I am at
least 20% complete.
