I had the exact same problem when I first tried to restore some files
from one of my bacula installations. The problem was the database on the
back end. I had my database expert (who isn't me!) reindex the database
and everything became MUCH faster (like seconds instead of hours). We
have a nightly job that vacuums and reindexes the database each night
and everything has worked wonderfully since.
Good luck!

Hi,
we recently had to perform a complete restore of around 150GB with 1.5
mio files and noticed that bacula (1.38.5) spends A LOT of time (several
hours) after I typed 'done' in the file selection dialog and until I could
define the restore parameters.
Could any of those in the know please enlighten us on what the director
is actually doing during these hours ? It's not that our server is slow
or small, on the contrary ! Comparing with other restores, my inpression
was that the wait time scales non-linearily with the number of files, so
some sort of sorting may be going on.

N. Paschedag
