[Bacula-users] Performance problem on a Job of a filesystem with a lots of Files

2010-09-23 Thread Andrés Yacopino
I need to improve performance of a Job which backups 150 files (mail and File Server). I was compressing the files on disk in some tgz files first (tar and gzip) ,then backuping then on tape with Bacula, i was getting about: Job write elapsed time = 00:32:16, Transfer rate = 44.93 M
