It did'nt resolved anything.. I also disableb gzip compression at the same time.
If I enable gzip I have the same low speed (with or w/o --enable-smartalloc). At the moment bacula runs fast enougth. The only problem to solve is OS/Hardware related. My Tape runs at an other machine with 17-20Mb/s and at the new Solaris 10 server with a SCSI-U320-Controller I get only 2.6Mb/s... > -----Original Message----- > From: Kern Sibbald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, November 08, 2005 2:24 PM > To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Cc: Ribi Roland > Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Performance testing and tuning > > > On Tuesday 08 November 2005 11:10, Ribi Roland wrote: > > I found the solution... > > > > rtfm! > > > > for solaris --enable-smartalloc is important... :/ > > I would be curious to know what problem this solved.
