You should be using Proxmox Backup Server
After years of ignoring it, I finally switched back to Proxmox Backup Server and reclaimed 6TB of disk space. Totally worth it.
Info
The disk, network, and computational savings are incredible with Proxmox Backup Server and you should be using it if you are running Proxmox VE. I used NFS for years and only now do I realize how inefficient that is. This is why I started using Proxmox Backup Server once again.

Guide on using NFS for your Proxmox Backup Server Dataset
- I followed this guide but stored the dataset on my TrueNAS server on an NFS share. The process is almost the same except use TrueNAS instead of Synology.
