It might also worth looking at the size of the volume being restored from. We were backing up multiple servers into one volume each week that was nearing 250GB after the weekly Full and nearer 350GB after the week's worth of Diffs were added to that.
I'm experimenting with spliting them out into a separate file for each weekly Full for each host and a separate file for each host for all the week's Diffs IYSWIM. So a restore will only ever have to read through 2 reasonably sized files rather than one huge 200GB+ one. The end result is a bunch of volumes like: client1-full-0001 <- one Full of this host client2-full-0001 <- one Full of this host client1-differential-0002 <- all diffs for a week client2-differential-0002 <- all diffs for a week I've yet to try a restore from one of the larger clients to see if it's appreciably quicker, something I'll try and get round to tomorrow.
