If you have large, slow fileservers it is sometimes better to break up the 
filesystems
you are backing up into different client savegrps.   Then you can run the 
backup just
for some filesystems then run the others at a staggered time or even a 
different day.
You may create multiple clients with different configs, of the same host and 
back them up
in different savegrps.  We did this to cope with backup of a huge slow NDMP job 
andcit
works well.
