As I just mentioned in my response to Peter, upgrading to
4.4.3-300.fc23.armv7hl significantly helped.  My backup lasted 18+ hours
before it died, and it only died because I ran a "du -sh"
simultaneously.  Granted, that shouldn't have put it over the edge
either, but when I was running 4.2.3 backup only lasted 2-4 hours before
dying on its own.

So 4.4.3 is definitely an improvement.
