Hi Alan,

Wow, this was really fast :-) Thanks for your answer. 

of course I know, that this is a io-consuming-process, but the load is really 
too high. Other tasks that are done by the system (log rotation, ...) are not 
working correctly and once the server crashed bc. of this high load.

Wouldn't it be better to use ionice -c2 -n7, even if the backup-task works 
longer?

In this case the system would only read/write, if there are no other processes 
which need the io.
