[Bacula-users] Interesting performance observation

[Steve T. <sm...@vg...>]

Bacula 5.0.2. This is not a problem; just an observation.

I do backups to disk only, using six RAID arrays for storage, totalling 
45TB physical disk. Originally I used six pools and six devices, but ran 
into disk space management issues. This setup was converted to one device 
and one pool per client (about 50). Backups are compressed and TLS is used 
(storage is offsite). No other changes were made: backup throughput 
performance almost exactly doubled.
