For what it's worth, I used bconsole, and it was extremly slow (20+ hours)
under 5.0.x, while it was relatively fast (less than 10 minutes) under 3.0.3

I do not see how you could expect to get "official info" before
there is official opinion formed ?

There is a speed bug in bacula 5.0.x series only. It is reported, and 
you can track the bug status at http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1472

Once the exact problem and official resolution are known, then bug
report will be closed and speed bug fixed (or official recommendations 
given in bug report at URL above).

So you could either:

1) put up with slowness until the bug 1472 is resolved and then
   upgrade and/or follow official recommendations. Perhaps you can
   even help with it by providing additional information and/or
   running tests ?

2) downgrade to 3.0.3 which does not have this bug

3) spend some time reading the experiences of others and trying to
   adopt them to your case

4) give up
