is maybe the CPU load associated with network overhead ? ? ?
      
     force on client compression, which will reduce network traffic, might  
     help...
      
     also since a lot of incremental backup processing is just to figure  
     out what to back up... offset the start times of the schedules so the  
     server doesn't have  all that load at once.
      
     memoryeffecient yes (on the clients) might also spread the load out on  
     the server over a greater period of time, thus yielding a reduced peak  
     server cpu utilization.

Hi All,
I have a CPU usage overload on my ADSM NT 3.1.1.2  (HP LxPro Dual PentiumPro  
200, 256 MB Ram, 50GB Raid 5). It start with 4-5 simultaneous client session  
(PC Win95). When we start in production last year we didn't have this kind  
of issue. Since one month, with more than 5 clients with have 80% CPU on the  
two processor.  
I increase the DB Buffer (32MB to 64MB), It's the same. We have enough  
memory.
      
Does anybody have ideas ?
      
Thanks for your help.
