Hello bacula list,

I have got a full backup on and old and busy web and mail server
(Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz) and after 3 days it has not yet
finished. I chose gzip compression in the config files. default
compression level is gzip 6.

Now the problem is it is significantly affecting other jobs on the old
server and other sheduled backup jobs. 

The old server is busy(lots of scripts eating up cpu cycles) and
overloaded. I wonder if I can do the compression on the storage daemon
side because the backup server is new and has 4 cores. and I do need to
do the compression because I only have 1T raid1 on the backup serve.


Thanks a lot,
