I have a system with about the same amount of data and far more files
running on much less hardware. I, too, found backupPC_nightly taking a LONG
time. I switched from EXT3 to EXT4 (with extents enabled) and my problems
were basically solved. My system was also 32-bit (I've switched to 64-bit
since then to get better ext4 stability... long story, RedHat stinks)

What filesystem are you using?
