The only thing that is running during that time is an rsync backup to an external usb drive. It starts at 03:10am each morning and ends depending on how much data is backed up. For instance on 08/04 it started at 03:10 and ended 03:25. Other days noted in the log:

If any more data is needed I'd be happy to provide it.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=7hwYCH3-kuo:fQElnDS-sVI:F7zBnMy latest?i=7hwYCH3-kuo:fQElnDS-sVI:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=7hwYCH3-kuo:fQElnDS-sVI:gIN9vFw7hwYCH3-kuo
