Hi!

The safe money IMO is on the fact that everyone's file server backups
tend to be slow because you've got a process crawling the data, which
takes forever.

To speed it up either:

1) Multi-stream backups / running multiple crawlers at the same time
2) Use flashbackup

We have had the same problem and initially tried to use flashbackup, however
the restores from flashbackup is much slower so we currently use multi-stream
backups. With multi-stream backups we can run a full backup within 24 hours with
10+ million files and roughly 700 GByte of data.

We always use backup to disk at nights and then stage it to tape during the day
