What are the connections rated for in terms of bandwidth between these two 
machines?  I would check if you have a network issue outside of bacula first.  
After our deployment of bacula a few years ago, I noticed a couple computers on 
our network would backup extremely slow (300-500kbps) on a 1gig line.  Turns 
out after running internet speed tests on these computers that the network 
drivers needed to be updated or switched from the default to vendor specific 
drivers.

Subject: [Bacula-users]  Backup is way too slow

Hey Guys,
I have my Director, DB, and Storage on a server running CentOS 6. I am backing 
up a client over the network that is physically about 15 miles away and is 
running a Windows 2008 R2 Small Business Server .
I'm backing up 170 gigabytes. Right now the job has been running for 37 minutes 
and has backed up 394,920,354 bytes or 0.367798 gigabytes.
It is processing at 181,739 bytes per second. Now that is only .17 MB/s at this 
pace it is only backing up .6 Gigs per hour which means to back up 170Gigs will 
require nearly  two weeks  to complete. I understand this is a slow process but 
I mean there has to be something wrong if its at  .17 MB/s!!! 

I do not have spooling enabled. I am backing up to file(my server), I am not 
using any compression in the FileSet Resource and I am using the MD5 signature.

Please help me out here!!!

Thanks,
noob
