i'm having trouble getting a netapp nfs mount backed up to my local 
bacula server. this is bacula 2.2.6 patched. i think the problem is
the large number of files on the netapp. the backup just slows to a
crawl:

molbio-fd Version: 2.2.6 (10 November 2007)  x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu redhat 
Daemon started 25-Dec-07 08:02, 4 Jobs run since started.

    Backup Job started: 25-Dec-07 16:47

    Processing file:

    SDReadSeqNo=5 fd=5
Director connected at: 27-Dec-07 10:06

my mount options on the nfs mount are:

birch:/vol/vol0 on /birch_vol0 type nfs 
(ro,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,addr=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)

the job has been running nearly 48 hours and its only about a third done, there 
is around 1.1T on
this filer and around 8 million files. 

anyone had any experience working with nfs backups like this? my other netapp 
nfs mount backups
seem to run at adequate rates (20+MB/s) 

thanks and happy new year!
