In case anyone is interested, I modified our Powershell script for full backup of our Exchange databases so that it now backs up multiple concurrent Storage Groups in a single script (because I'm too darn lazy to deal with multiple node names, schedules, etc).
In our case, it dropped elapsed times from 36hr to 11hr, running 4 concurrent threads. If anyone would like a copy, just contact me.
