This job is backing up 2.3 TB of data.

These are running over the weekend so I have not checked on system performance during this time. (other things to do ). But I am wondering if these jobs will use more memory / cpu ?  The system has 24 Gb of memory and 1 Xeon processor with 8 cpu's. The disk drives are on a raid 5 using an ATTO 6G raid card.

What would cause this increase of duration?

The encryption is not performed by the bacula-dir machine, but rather by the bacula-fd machine. If you are not already doing so, running the jobs concurrently may help, since it appears that the clients are spending much of their time in encryption routines.
