I will if/when the installation gets larger again (at which point we may move
to the Commercial version finally); I'm down under 1 TB of Base backups now,
from a height of around 8TB. Honestly, Bacula's been so darn lightweight and
efficient for me the past 7+ years I never needed to bother - the only times
I've had any issue with it is when we had a machine with about 2TB of storage,
made up of up tens of millions of little JPGs.
At any rate; an 'optimize table File' fixed both the Restore issue and the
Incremental issue; it's back down to 'instantaneous' speed.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance,
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
