Plakar: Open-source backup tool, 95% faster restores in v1.1.3 (opens in new tab)

After a long beta and three release candidates, plakar v1.1.3 is finally out. It is the biggest release we have shipped so far: faster restores, much lower memory usage, a smaller cache footprint, a brand new terminal UI, better mounting, a new package manager, simpler integration interfaces, and a far more reliable execution model now that the agent is gone and cached has taken its place. It is stable, fully backward compatible, and ready for production.
