I just finished rereading the "Restoring Files Can Be Slow" section of
the manual. In it, it mentions doing a restore will be about 3 times
slower than a backup.
Now I've got a situation where I have to remove sensitive data that was
backed up on several tapes. The way I'm doing this is to bsca

A couple of things you can do. Retrieve the bootstrape file and use
