Thanks for the quick response, Philip. Oh, and thanks for the great software too. I think its really going to save me some time!

Aside from the notification email, is there any way to go back and look at : * Job elapsed time * Compression method * Compression ratio ? Using llist I can compute elapsed time from start and end, and list tells me job bytes, but I can't find these other parameters. Since its in the notification email, its not a huge deal. I just want to know if there's a way I can go back and look these up after the fact... > you could also try lz4, lz4hc and lzfast. They're on the list. I'm more or less just changing the compression method between nightly incrementals to observe the impact. That takes some time... :) > What you can always do is split your fileset into chunks and run backups of > each one in parallel. I see your point. My concern with this strategy is that it is likely to cause more disk seeks on both the FD and SD end. I'll keep this in mind, but I'd prefer a solution where the IO stays sequential and the computation is parallelized. For the moment, I'll just pick the fastest out of the box solution. In the long term tho, it seems like allowing the FD to fully utilize the client machine would be a feature worthy of inclusion. Is there an objection to entering this as a feature request on the bug tracker? Bryce This electronic message contains information generated by the USDA solely for the intended recipients.
