ADSM should displace the notion of full vs. incremental backups.  However, old 
habits die hard.

For faster restores, it may make sense to think about your data in a new way: 
not all data is equally important.  If you decide which data really has a rapid 
restore requirement, and you know (not think you know, but know) that the 
default way that ADSM handles data does not provide rapid enough restore, you 
can treat that data differently.  One possible answer is to collocate a clients 
data on tape.  In this way, it is only necessary to mount a tape or two 
(depending on the tape technology you have) to restore the data.  Collocating 
data costs you on the backup performance side (not much if your migrations to 
tape occur after backup processing is complete, assuming you have enough disk 
pool to hold a day's incremental backups), but saves you on the restore side.

What sort of tape drives do you have?  Have you tried a full disk restore to 
determine how long it is actually taking?
