When using this mode, instead of the regular pxar archive, the backup snapshot
is stored into two separate files: the `mpxar` containing the archive's metadata
and the `ppxar` containing a concatenation of the file contents. This splitting
allows for efficient metadata lookups. When creating the backup archives, the
current file metadata is compared to the one looked up in the previous `mpxar`
archive. The operational details are explained more in depth in the
