I have bacula installed on a single machine. When it runs any backup the file daemon, storage daemon and mysql monopolise the cpu and the machine becomes practically unusable. This is very frustrating because backing up 320GB to LTO2 is also taking 11 hours(8626KB/s) which is well below the speeds I can achieve with dump and tar.
Is anyone else experiencing this and does anyone have any suggestions on how I can address it.
1: Make sure you have enough memory for the job (ie, LOTS of ram) 2: Tune mysql to use that instead of paging into tmp files. 3: Run bacula on a dedicated server.
