Hi, yes I know that all.
But the problem is, when a customer lost data, I need the backup fast and I have no time to wait "some" hours. And I think Backuppc must be able to restore faster. Why I shell login via ssh and kill such processes? There is a webtool for Backup, this software must only work. Backup software must be easy. => When I need restore, it must restore immediately and I cannot wait some hours. Backuppc have all datas for this restore, it only must unpack and restore. I think it is not so much big thing. ;) Not more, not less. I think it was great, if development make something that unpacking and restore goes faster.
