Network traffic after TM is complete.
After my time machine backup is complete, there is still some network traffic and my "Time Machine Backups" is still mounted. If I eject that mount, the traffic stops.
I looked through the forms and it was mentioned, but it seems as if there was no solution in the end, just a lot of things to try. Anyone else have this issue?

- Interesting... It has to do with finder... I thought I put the backup volume in the ignore list but will look into it...

Confirmed... I have the "Time Machine Backups" in my Prevent Spotlight from searching these locations list."
When you add it though it does pop up with a "Time Machine Backups is a Time Machine backup disk. Spotlight will continue to search Time Machine backups but will not search other items on the disk."
hmmmmmm
Anyone have any other ideas?

OSX 10.7.1 - Workaround:
Its a Lion ( OSX 10.7) issue.
Workaround is shut off spotlight searching, which I do not use.
