Howdy,
New to the list, so forgive me if this has been metioned before,

New members are just as capable of searching the list as old ones.
A search WAS performed before posting, and nothing pertinent was found.
I'm new to the list, not the web.
I upgraded my Xserve Dual 1.3 Ghz to Tiger.1 Friday, and have been
fighting with BRU LE ever since.
First was the upgrade to version 1.2.9, which apparently is needed,
even though their site said the current version was ready.
Second was extremely high CPU usage, even when BRU was idle.
WHAT is seeing "extremely high" CPU usage, and how are you defining
that? If it's idle, BRU can't be consuming CPU, it's idle.
90%+ high enough for you?..... Activity monitor, terminal, etc shows
that. The app is not doing anything, but it's still reading there.
Finally, yesterday after attempting a manual backup, The BRU GUI and
the actual BRU background app became 'seperated' from each other, and
the GUI couldn't control the background app. Now the GUI just chokes
and won't do anything.

Sorry if I didn't know how to explain the problem better. It seems
some have an equally hard time making constructive comments.
However the BOFH generator suggests: "The sticky bit may have become
loose." ;)
WTF???? THAT's helpful.
Tolis tech support HAS been contacted, but they've offered nothing
terrible useful yet, other than a new Beta may be coming. (Oh boy! a
beta version on my production server!)
After a reinstall, BRU is still behaving badly. CPU usage us STILL
over 80%+, and it is choking when finishing manual backups. Tolis has
offered no other suggestions yet, as they have yet to respond to my
followup with them, so I'm hoping someone here can offer some
constructive suggestions.
I've deinstalled and reinstalled twice now, but without performing a
drive-wipe, not sure what else to do. The tape drive is a LaCie
firewire AIT-2 , and the Xserve is a dual 1.3ghz.
