Surely the choice of backup device will have a greater effect on backup performance than the software. Backing up to a local drive is going to be faster than sending it across the network to a centralised DAT device. SDLT devices are faster than DLT, etc., etc. In addition you need to compromise between backup speed and restore speed. We have a dedicated backup LAN to SDLT and LTO robots, the backup is streamlined across tape drives, while backup is fast restore times are becoming a problem.
