Exactly.
In our environment, incrementals save a *lot* of tape.
Fairly busy database, but SELECT:DML ratio is pretty high.
With a 500+ gigabyte database, it makes quite a difference here.
Usage must be tailored for the environment.
It's just that blanket statements such as the one Ryan mentioned
in the beginning of the thread demand a response. :)
(DBA says that incrementals take longer to restore...)
