FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello,
i almost got map online backup working (see attachment).
But there is problem, that backup never finishes, most likely because DB is written all the time, despite settings.
In minetest.conf i have these settings:

I tough that means that minetest will write to database only every 520 seconds, but backups resets in few seconds!
Any ideas?

I'm sure, minetest won't write all changes at once.
It will spread the load and save little parts instead of all together.

A server shutdown script would be better to do backups.

Then i don't get why those settings are there...

Well, i have things little more complicated...
So online backup really would help me there.

They're there to define the waiting time of "the little part" until it gets saved again.

Ok, thanks.
No olnine backup then, too bad :(

Hurray!
Changing to

makes it work!
At least on my laptop.
Now i am going to test it on my live server :)

well....
first time that worked (making some lags on server).
When i run that second time(to sync to already existing backup file), it takes very long.
