Bacula version 5.0.3
 
In BAT, when trying to restore a directory (roughly 31,000 files in 560 sub 
folders)  The "Filling Database Table" takes an extremely long time to complete 
(about an hour or so).
 
I've been looking around for a way to speed this up.  Found a post on here that 
referred to an article that basically said PostgreSQL was the way to go as far 
as speed 
(http://wiki.bacula.org/doku.php?id=faq#restore_takes_a_long_time_to_retrieve_sql_results_from_mysql_catalog).
  So I converted from MySQL to PostgreSQL using the conversion procedure in the 
Bacula documentation.  We are now on PostgreSQL, but the speed seems just as 
slow (if not slower).  Is there anything else that can be done to speed this 
process up?
 
I've also tried the running the DB under MySQL with MyISAM and InnoDB tables.  
Both had the same slow performance here.  With MySQL, I also tried using the 
my-large.cnf and my-huge.cnf files.  Neither helped.
 
Server load is very low during this process (0.06).  BAT process is at about 3% 
cpu and 1.6% memory.  Postgres service is about 1%cpu, 0.6% memory.  Drive 
array is pretty quiet also.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If any extra info is needed, I will 
gladly provide it.
