Is amanda doing compression? I backed up some really slow Suns and doing
local compression totally killed the performance of the backup. Also the
first time you do a backup of a system it does a level 0 (full) backup.
Also I find its better to add one server a day to amanda so you don't
end up with with a huge backup cycle at the start, but that's just my preference.
