For each file in the directories you specify (normally your whole filesystem), Bacula will do a linear search through the exclude list. Thus it could be extremely CPU intensive. For a large list (more than 1000 files) I believe it (the list) needs to be put into a hash tree, which is code that does not exist. > > > > Thanks > > > > ---- > > Alan Davis > > Senior Architect > > Ruckus Network, Inc. > > 703.464.6578 (o) > > 410.365.7175 (m) > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > alancdavis AIM ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
