Are you able to zip up the files perhaps? I suspect the problem is
reading the huge number of small files in order to decide whether they
require a backup. Perhaps Journaling may help here .. although I have no
personal experience of this..

Also.. check network performance (switch and card set to auto auto)?

Hye

We have a windows 2003 SP1 files server that contain 7 000 000 files of
a capacity of 300 GB. Every day we add 15 000 files for around 1GB. We
made incremental for ever to backup this.

The backup is now very long 20 hours. TSM client is 5.3.0.3. And now we
thinks it's affect the perfermance on the server from using to much
memory.

Do somebody have suggestion to help ?

thanks
