Me too. Athlon 2200XP, 512MB Ram, 3ware 7xxx controller. BackupPC_nightly takes about 7 hours. My solution is to schedule around it. I run incrementals during the week that are always finished by midnight, and my weekly full backups starting on Friday evening. That takes about 24 hours, so I added a line to the code so that BackupPC_nightly does not run on Saturdays. > FWIW, I have the same problem :-/ > > My hardware is a P4 2.6 GHz 1GB RAM, 3ware 8500-S8 controller. > > I'm using it with 7+1 200GB Maxtor SATA drives, the filesystem is XFS. > Everything but BackupPC_nightly is running very fast. > > I'll try some of the hints given in this thread and see if it helps. > > Lars |
