If you find the problem affects all hosts (the du command discussed previously will tell you that), then you might want to look at one individual host like this: du -sm /backup/pool /backup/cpool /backup/pc/host1/*
This should be a *lot* quicker than the previous du command, and also should show minimal disk usage for each backup for host1. It is quicker because you are only looking at the set of files for the pool, plus one host. PS, at this stage, you may want to look at the recent thread regarding disk caches, and caching directory entries instead of file contents. It might help with all the directory based searches you are doing to find the problem. Long term you may (or not) want to keep the settings.
