Hi Josh,
Thanks for your reply.

I don’t use compression or encryption, but VSS. I disabled VSS and get about 40
MByte/s. If I also set acl support = no, I get about 43 MByte/s.
It’s better, but far away from the 90 MByte/s from a linux box with similar
data.
Last night I have took a look at the bacula console during the full backups and
could see one Windows clients with 65 MByte/s. This server hosts a SQL Server
with big database dump files. The Bacula File Daemon is faster with big files.
How can I tune the Bacula File Daemon to increase the transfer rate for a lot
of small files? Can I set the maximum memory usage? Is a ramdisk which collects
the files from the hard drive and send it as bunches to bacula possible?
During the full backup the bacula-fd.exe process on one windows host has the
following memory statistics (from Process Explorer)
Private Bytes 9.884 K
Peak Private Bytes 688.128 K
Virtual Size 120.144 K
Page Faults 234.738
Page Fault Delta 0

Patrick
