I have been working with bacula for some months, i love this software, my current problem is this one:
My Test Server.
I'm running bacula server 1.38.11 on FreeBSD 6.1-p3
Mysql 4.1.20
Tape HP Storage Works 232 External 200GB Compress
HD 200 IDE 7200 RPM
AMD Duron 1.6 Ghz
512 RAM
Clients:
2 Win NT 4 Client 1.38.4
1 Windows 2k3 Estandard Edition Client 1.38.4
1 Linux Red Hat 9 (bonding ON --> 2 NIC's) 1.38.4
My production server is:
I'm running bacula server 1.38.5 on FreeBSD 5.4-p16
Mysql 5.0.21
Tape HP Storage Works 232 External 200GB Compress
HD 80 IDE 5400 RPM
AMD Duron 1.6 Ghz
512 RAM
Im going to talk about the test server, because the production server has almost the same performance, this is one report from a backup for win2k3:

You can see the rate...?
This is the problem, this is a new server Supermicro:
Xeon 3Ghz (2 cpu)
2 GB RAM
Raid 5(4 HD)
The others serves are old computers and the Rate value is > 1MB/s, i still cannot increase this value. Example:
WinNT 4(A) --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 2319.7 Data Size 176MB
WinNT 4(B) --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 2296.6 Data Size 339MB
Linux --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 5536 Data Size 155MB
FreeBSD ---Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 1709.7 Data Size 8MB
Win2k3 ---Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 788.2 Data Size 145MB VSS=yes
WinNT 4(A) --- Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 2319.7 Data Size 176MB
WinNT 4(B) --- Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 2296.6 Data Size 339MB
Linux --- Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 5536 Data Size 155MB
FreeBSD ---Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 1709.7 Data Size 8MB
Win2k3 ---Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = 65536 Rate 824 Data Size 145MB VSS=yes
Now check thi:
WinNT 4(A) --- Spool OFF--Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 1388.2 Data Size 176MB
WinNT 4(B) --- Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 1716 Data Size 339MB
Linux --- Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 6739.5 Data Size 155MB
FreeBSD ---Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 1398.7 Data Size 8MB
Win2k3 ---Spool OFF --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 805.7 Data Size 145MB VSS=yes
WinNT 4(A) --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 2124.1 Data Size 176MB
WinNT 4(B) --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 1867.5 Data Size 339MB
Linux --- Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 4559 Data Size 155MB
FreeBSD ---Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 1459.2 Data Size 8MB
Win2k3 ---Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 810.2 Data Size 145MB VSS=yes
Them i disable the VSS=on, buffer = 65536
Win2k3 ---Spool On --Net..Buffer Size = default Rate 814 Data Size 145MB VSS=off
I check my Indexes on mysql, reading the maillist they look correct:
mysql> SHOW index from File;
+-------+------------+----------+--------------+-------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+
| Table | Non_unique | Key_name | Seq_in_index | Column_name | Collation | Cardinality | Sub_part | Packed | Null | Index_type | Comment |

This performance is the same on the producction server, i dont run nothing special on win2k3, still is fresh, i dont any firewall or antivirus software yet, my network is running at 100MB Full Duplex, the bacula and win2k3 are on the same switch.
Some has some issue like on win2k3...? Im thinking that myabe the Raid performance is not really good, but the other sevices are runnnig good. Any ideas how resolve this problem...?
Any tip will be apreciated, thanks all for you time!!!
NOTE: Iam going to test the backup on File and see what happend.
