[Koha] Daily outage during backups

I started using a service from uptimerobot.com to monitor our Koha
installation, and I found out we have a daily outage very early every
morning lasting about 40 minutes. Not good. Tracing this down, I found
service is restored each day at the same time -- to the minute -- when the
daily cron job for the backup finishes.

Other monitoring shows we should still have enough RAM available during
this time, so I think things may be timing out due to heavy disk I/O
writing the backup files. Any ideas how to address this?
