Hi,

I have been doing bare metal restores, using bacula, of NT boxes, 2000
boxes, and 2003 boxes with some success.  At this point, one of the
roadblocks is the speed of restores.  Some restores reach 24 MB/s , while
others only reach around 1 MB/s.  Using the backups from one particular box
(it is a 2003 webserver) that restores around .7 to 1.5 MB/s , we have been
running some tests to see if we can speed up restores.  So far, we have had
no luck.  

One of the things we have tried is to restore to completely unused storage
(to rule out I/O issues)
Another thing we have tried is splitting the backups into 4 different
filesets (they run about 20 gigs each in size).  

Does anyone have any suggestions for speeding up our restores?
