I've found on my installation that for some clients, the bottleneck was rather the client's CPU. Switching from `compress client' to `compress server' gained me some percent. Also, breaking up into smaller DLEs surely helps, if only because it tends to keep the holding disk free (you run into 100% a few times), which might allow other clients to be started in parallel. As it stands, you don't almost gain anything by parallelizing DLEs: > Run Time (hrs:min) 110:57 > Dump Time (hrs:min) 120:52 But even so, 716GB in 120h isn't that bad a troughput. I'm getting half an order of magnitude better, 400GB in typically 16h, but I wouldn't bet the house on getting below 24h.
