10.5: Improve networked Time Machine performance
Authored by: res1233 on Nov 16, '13 06:49:51PM

Actually, this likely isn't the case. The bands likely work much like a sliced up sparse image, which can be compacted just like sparse bundles. The thing about removing bands is just a handy optimization due to the fact that removing files is far faster than deleting parts of files. If I had to guess (although I don't have any actual evidence...) the bands can probably be removed of free sectors just like the sparse images can.
