OK, this shows why it is slow. The algorithm in add_findex is only efficient when called with consecutive index values (the third number printed). The code for "restore all" in 2.4.4 doesn't do that, so it can take a very long time to complete. This was fixed in later version, so I think the best solution is to upgrade Bacula. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
