Hi,

How long is it normal for pruning/purging a volume to take? I have found that it takes several hours, even if only purging 2 or 3 jobs (& incremental jobs, rather than full ones) - this obviously can delay backups quite significantly.

Does the purge/prune actually require interaction with the tape? Or just the database?

I'm running 1.36.3, on Linux, & using MySQL as the backend. It's quite an old machine, as well. My backup is to LTO-3 tapes in an autochanger (backing up etc works fine).


Thanks for any help/comments!
