I don't currently have a system running so I can't give very specific
advice, but if I were doing it I'd probably try to fix the schedule to
do fulls every 4 or 8 weeks and make them happen on weekends if that
is down time on the clients, skewing them so different large clients
get the full on different weekends and ones that complete overnight on
weekdays.    Alternatively, if the target data is neatly subdivided
into top level directories, I might try to split runs to a single
large host giving it multiple names, each with different shares, using
ClientNameAlias to point it to the same target to make it possible to
split the fulls into different days so each completes in the available
time.
