You'll likely get a lot more performance for your money by adding RAM; and
after that, faster disks. 

If you already have a GB NIC, you're almost certainly outstripping disk
performance, especially with the calculations and comparisons BackupPC does
to data before writing it to disk.

The only way I can see that not being the case is if you're running some
high-end SSD.
