Re: HELP! Faster Restore than Backups over Gigabit?

The number of objects backed up (11,854) does not match the # of objects
restored (2687+1122) so you are not comparing the same thing.

Does the backup include NDS?  To do an accurate comparison, only backup VOL1
and VOL2.

We used the bytes transfered and elapsed time to calculate the throughput.
Here are the actual stats though:

Is the performance comparison from the stats ITSM gives at the end of the
session?  If so, are you giving us the network or the aggregate transfer?
I'd expect the network transfer rate to be about the same, but the
aggregate to be faster on the restore (unless it's a fairly small restore).
