Hi, I am running bacula 5.0.3 on CentOS 5.6.
When I run a simple Job I can have rates between 20 or 40 MB/s over a Gigabyte network but when I am running this job with client encryption and compression everything become slow below 5 MB/s and sometimes under 500 KB/s. Generally I test with a backup job on a full system and then do Inc. Both are very slow. What should I check ? Maybe it's my file set ? I used both MacOSX client and CentOS clients with equivalent slowness. Does anybody got this problem ? Maybe it can come from zlib or openssl that I use ? I am practically sure it's coming from the File Daemon. I use compression at 3/10 level Thank you very much Hugo I joined the config I used to generate the RPM : #!/bin/sh cat << __EOC__ $ ./configure '--host=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--build=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' '--target=i386-redhat-linux' '--program-prefix=' '--exec-prefix=/usr' '--bindir=/usr/bin' '--sysconfdir=/etc' '--datadir=/usr/share' '--includedir=/usr/include' '--libdir=/usr/lib' '--libexecdir=/usr/libexec' '--localstatedir=/var' '--sharedstatedir=/usr/com' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--prefix=/usr' '--sbindir=/usr/sbin' '--sysconfdir=/etc/bacula' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--with-scriptdir=/usr/lib/bacula' '--with-working-dir=/var/lib/bacula' '--with-plugindir=/usr/lib/bacula' '--with-pid-dir=/var/run' '--with-subsys-dir=/var/lock/subsys' '--enable-smartalloc' '--disable-gnome' '--disable-bwx-console' '--disable-tray-monitor' '--disable-conio' '--enable-readline' '--with-postgresql' '--disable-bat' '--with-dir-user=bacula' '--with-dir-group=bacula' '--with-sd-user=bacula' '--with-sd-group=disk' '--with-fd-user=root' '--with-fd-group=bacula' '--with-dir-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_DIRECTOR_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-fd-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-sd-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_STORAGE_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-mon-dir-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_DIRECTOR_MONITOR_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-mon-fd-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_CLIENT_MONITOR_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-mon-sd-password=XXX_REPLACE_WITH_STORAGE_MONITOR_PASSWORD_XXX' '--with-openssl' 'build_alias=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' 'host_alias=i686-redhat-linux-gnu' 'target_alias=i386-redhat-linux' 'CFLAGS=-O2 -g -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables' 'CXXFLAGS=-O2 -g -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=generic -fasynchronous-unwind-tables' Configuration on Thu Oct 14 13:33:48 CEST 2010: Host: i686-redhat-linux-gnu -- redhat Bacula version: Bacula 5.0.3 (30 August 2010) Source code location: .
