Need a quick way to list off my archive descriptions

[Brazner, Bob]

What SQL can I code to get a quick list of the archives I may have taken
for a given node.  I'm interested in getting the unique "descriptions".  If
I code
select description from archives blah blah blah,
it takes forever to product results.  Yet, I know the backup/restore gui is
able to quickly display this information.  What's the trick?
