> Time Machine works fine until it doesn’t

I have been backing up to Time Machine for years without issues. Recently I started using pnpm (Nodejs package manager) and the backup process hangs on Mui material icons files (@mui/icons-material). Using "sudo fs_usage -f filesys backupd" I see that it is looping over the same files over and over.

I have found that Asimov alleviates this issue.

I wrote a tiny blurb about it here:
