Settings: General: Storage & iCloud Usage: iCloud "Manage Storage": Backups: Next Backup Size...

Why does it take hours for my iPhone to determine my "Next Backup Size"for iCloud, and the backup sizes of all my various apps? I understand it should take a little bit of time but it literally takes hours. And if I let my phone's screen turn off it stops the process and it needs to start all over again. Miserable. I like to use this to see which apps are taking up the most storage space so I can turn off backups for certain apps (which is a miserable process in itself since the phone doesn't seem to save my choices after a new backup).
