I've done a bunch of testing since my last post, and the slowdown appears to be CPU usage on the client file daemon (bacula-fd). bacula-fd consumes all the cpu resource it can get, and tends to transfers data faster (40 MB/s) on to the director on a machine with better CPU, even though the disk array on the slower machine (28 MB/s) was faster (similar data sets). I'm using MD5 hashes and compression is not turned on (also not explicitly turned off, if there is such a command). Is it normal for the file daemon to consume 100% of a cpu, or am I doing something wrong?
