Well this and Paul's suggestion makes sense; take a normal full backup, no BLB agent
involved, and all the work is done on the restore. If it didn't slow down the backup
time the same way a traditional BLB backup does, it would be worth looking at.
I still maintain that with the newer versions of exchange there is less reason to
choose BLBs but... I suppose for those that want the option its good to know its
there.
