Every time my scheduled backup runs, it spikes my CPU usage up to 100%, literally freezing everything else I'm doing. It is only during the 'Compressing Backup Database' part of the backup process that the CPU usage is like this.

Is there some way of throttling the CPU that JungleDisk will use for its compression process?

The current process I have with my backups are that they run frequently (every 15 min), that way it need only upload a megabyte or so each time. I don't want to lower the frequency, as the machine is only on while I'm working on it, and even then I don't have internet access 50% of the time. I'm running this off a 32 bit Windows XP Virtualbox machine.
