Client: Netware 5.0; ADSM V3,R1,L0.7; Ethernet 10 megabite half duplex;
Dell Pentium 2 400 single processor, 6 4GB drives in Raid 5 config;
Three volumes, SYS: 2.3GB, NDS: 2.0MB, VOL1: 18.6GB

Server: VM/ESA 2.3.0; ADSM V3 R1 L2.20

VOL1 has 70,000 files on it. Guess which volume we are having a difficult
time with? When ADSM attempts an incremental on VOL1 it is ridiculously
slow. (300 MB in 8 hours). During this time ADSM CPU utilization on the
client is minimal. Server CPU utilization is also minimal (0.5%). Other
backup processes scream along at a good rate and push the server CPU
utilization up to 40 or 50 percent. Any ideas? Thanks.
