The forums are being backed up nightly now. The process was just tested and it took roughly 45 minutes to back everything up and dump it via FTP to a remote server. Obviously, as the forums grow, this time will increase. However, I have the process scheduled to start at 1AM PST/4AM EST, so most will not notice. However, if you are trying to browse the forums during this time, you will get a HTTP 404 error. Going to the homepage, you will notice that there is a Plesk default page instead of the current hompage. Don't be alarmed ... the site is "shut down" during backup.
