Hi all...I'm having a conceptual problem I can't get around and
was hoping someone can change my focus here.  I've been backing up
roughly 6-8 million small files (roughly 2-4k each) using dump, but
restores take forever due to the huge number of files and directories.
 Luckily, I haven't had to restore for an emergency yet...but if I
need to, I'm kinda stuck.  I've looked at distributed file systems
like CODA, but the number of files I have to deal with will make it
choke.  Can anyone offer any suggestions?  I've pondered running
rsync, but am very worried about how long that will take...

Thanks,
--Brian
