I haven't yet upgraded to 5.x (frankly the problem level is too high for
my liking) and am still on 3.0.3, Solaris 10, CoolStack MySQL 5.1.30
64-bit, carefully munged bacula configure script to compile 64-bit
DIR/SD/FD and use shared libraries.

I built a 32-bit bat using the bacula-supplied Qt, (again modifying
configure to use it).

Running DB/SD/DIR on the same box, I ran bat and set up a restore all of
~100,000 files, it took maybe a second for each phase.

I think I'll hold off updating for a bit longer.  Sigh.

        Cheers,
                Gary    B-)
