    Hey there!  I'll answer these in order to make sure we don't overlook anything!

    1 - There's really no way to answer this except "run the incrementals once and see."  Sorry I can't offer a better guess here.

    2 - Yes, you can still keep those retention options.

    3 - It sure does!

    4 - I wouldn't expect you to lose anything.  In fact, JetBackup has many more options above and beyond what are included in the WHM >> Backup Configuration page, so you'll find far more settings and options available with that tool.

    5 - It does!  https://docs.jetbackup.com/v5.3/userpanel/restoreAndDownload.html#restoreanddownloadaccountsuser

    6 - This is another one that's tricky to answer, but I'd guess it would be around the same.  The backup tool isn't typically the strain, it's the copying and compression.  Switching to incrementals is where you're see the savings here.
