Turning compression off on disk backup definitely improve the performance. I was at 17MB/s and now i am at 30 MB/s. On my network graphs i still see i don't often go beyond the 100Mb/s i don't find any explanation on the network side. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What You Don't Know About Data Connectivity CAN Hurt You This paper provides an overview of data connectivity, details its effect on application quality, and explores various alternative solutions. http://p.sf.net/sfu/progress-d2d _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
