Thanks for your response Matus, the problem isn´t the size of the files is the numer of files. To manage more than 2 million files is to slow for every backup systems, the time to analyze all file its almost the same for an incremental backup or for full backup. Our objective its to reduce the number of files.

I compressed all the plain.txt some time ago although it resulted to showing them as attachments. It would be nice if OTRS could (de)compress those files. > But I wonder why you backup everything in every backup run. > Wouldnt it make sense to use an incremental or differential backup method > with that amount of data? well, we do know that thing like incremental backup exists. However once in a while we all need to do full backup and the more data we have, the longer it takes. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
