Hello Peter,

To prepare restore, Baculum uses the Bacula Bvfs (Bacula Virtual
FileSystem) interface. Your backup looks to have a lot of files and it
can be that to prepare Bvfs cache it needs more time. I don't have any
solid solution for now but I can propose a workaround to prepare Bvfs
cache self manually or automatically.

By preparing manually I mean running for that job with milions files
the following command in bconsole:

.bvfs_update jobid=12345

or use Job Runscript for it.

But here please note that there is not fixed yet bug with using
Runscript Console directive with Bvfs commands:

http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=2419

If you want, instead of this you can use Runscript Command directive,
as suggested in this ticket.

At least the idea is to generate Bvfs cache in convinient time before
trying restore backup with milions files. After that Baculum restore
should work faster for that job.

I hope it helps.

Best regards.
