Hello,

i am tasked to set up daily full backups of our entire fax communication
and they are all stored in one single director ;). There are about
800.000 files in that directory what makes accessing that directory
extremely slow. The target device is a LTO3 tape drive with an 8 slots
changer.

With my current configuration Bacula needs ~48h to make a complete
backup which kinda conflicts with the requirement of doing dailys.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how i could speed things up? 

THX in advance - Tobi


PS: I already talked to my boss and our developers and they will change
the system so the faxes get stored in subdirectories. But changing that
doesn't have a very high priority and got scheduled for next summer.
