Hi,
How long is it normal for pruning/purging a volume to take? I have
found that it takes several hours, even if only purging 2 or 3 jobs (&
incremental jobs, rather than full ones) - this obviously can delay
backups quite significantly.
Does the purge/prune actually require interaction with the tape? Or
just the database?
I'm running 1.36.3, on Linux, & using MySQL as the backend. It's quite
an old machine, as well. My backup is to LTO-3 tapes in an autochanger
(backing up etc works fine).
Thanks for any help/comments!

pruning shouldn't take hours ...
i can get 6 jobs pruned in about 5-10 minutes ...
i suggest checking your database layout, there were ppl on the mailing
list that were missing indices in the database, that would explain why
it takes so long for you.
