The WebUI config editor renders these inline comments as field help.
Several had grown into paragraphs (updater, rootless networking, MTU,
install mode, backup engine); cut them back to a single line while
keeping option lists and **ADVANCED**/**DEV** markers intact.

The "Refreshing backup data..." step on every WebUI update fired one
`restic stats` (restore-size mode — the slowest restic op) plus ~4
identical unfiltered `restic snapshots --json` pulls per enabled
location (dashboard, snapshots, app-status, migrate each pulled their
own), all over a fresh SSH connection for remote repos, on every pass
with no throttle — the slow, "frozen"-looking line users hit on poor
links.
Two fixes:
1. Dedupe. engineSnapshotsJson transparently memoises the first
unfiltered whole-repo pull per location to a shared cache dir
(LP_SNAP_CACHE_DIR, set by webui_updater around the chain), so the
four generators reuse one restic call instead of four. Filtered and
failed/empty pulls always fall through to a live call.
2. Throttle. Backups and location changes already regenerate this data
live when they happen, so the routine pass is only a drift catch-up.
Split the cheap local-only generators (engines/schema/passwords —
no remote I/O) out to always run, and gate the remote pull behind
CFG_BACKUP_DASHBOARD_REFRESH_INTERVAL (minutes, default 30, 0 =
every update). A completed backup touches a dirty marker that forces
the next pass to pull; WEBUI_UPDATER_FORCE still forces a full
refresh.
Net: N locations x 5 remote restic calls every update -> 1 call per
location, only when something actually changed.

Config sections (Basic, Mail, DNS, Firewall, …) rendered as a bare name. Add a
small data-driven icon before each: config files now carry a `# @icon <emoji>`
directive in their header, the config generator surfaces it as the subcategory's
`icon`, and the config editor prepends it to the section <h3> (covers every
render path — regular/master/toggle/domains/catalogs/whitelist — since they all
drop displaySubcategory straight into the heading).
- webui_generate_configs.sh: parse `# @icon` (first 10 lines) → emit "icon".
- config-manager.js: prepend subcategoryData.icon to the section title.
- configs/**: added an @icon to all 23 base config files (backup/general/network/
security/webui). The live install's config files get the same directive + a
configs.json regen so existing installs show the icons too.

Application backups were driven by one crontab entry per app, each offset by
id * CFG_BACKUP_CRONTAB_APP_INTERVAL minutes. That minute offset is written
straight into cron's 0-59 minute field, so past ~20 apps it overflowed into
an invalid entry that silently never fired, and the fixed spacing could not
serialize backups that ran longer than the gap.
Replace it with a single daily entry (`libreportal backup scheduled`) that
enqueues a backup task per enabled app. The existing systemd task processor
drains them serially — no minute overflow, real serialization, and backups
are now visible/cancellable in the Tasks UI. Per-app enable is read from
CFG_<APP>_BACKUP at schedule time instead of being mirrored into crontab.
Removes the stagger machinery (timing/setup/check/remove scripts), the
now-unused cron_jobs table + insert, and the CFG_BACKUP_CRONTAB_APP_INTERVAL
config knob and its WebUI field.
