Looking for Detailed Explanation of Job Log Fields

I need a solution

Can anyone point me to an article or document that clearly indicates the meaning behind each field produced in a job log from Backup Exec 2010 R3?

I'm going through the logs and curious about the following excerpt from my differential backup:

Backed up 0 files in 15876 directories.
Processed 3,619,748 bytes in  1 minute and  21 seconds.
This backup set may not contain any data.

Given this is a differential backup, I read it as: "There were 0 changes detected but we processed 3,619,748 bytes to come to that conclusion"

Am I accurate in this assumption?

What does the "processed" number of bytes really mean?

In the case of this job, the Full backup that it is relying on is around 64 GB.  I'm just curious where does it get that "processed" number from?

Here's another example:

Backed up 23 files in 14 directories.
Processed 4,328,791,807 bytes in  4 minutes and  23 seconds.

I interpret this as: "We backed up 23 files in 14 directories, backing up a total of 4,328,791,807 bytes in the process."

Am I accurate in that assumption as well?

I am trying to properly figure out how much data we are backing up in a given day and I need to know whether i'm using the appropriate data for my calculations.

Thanks for any help!
