Hi list,
does the Bacula File-Daemon store temporary files on the client if I use
the gzip compression? If so where can I find this temporary fileson
Windows and Linux systems? Is there a max. size for the temporary
storage or is it all done on-the-fly so no additional storage space is
needed?

Scott,
Here I am being difficult again, but my dir, fd, sd, and MySql are all

I strongly believe the problem is (again) the sparc processor
I have a story on previous sparc processor being too slow for high number of

I thought this new multi-core T1 architecture would be different.
But, at last, each core is running at 1Ghz...and I don't think bacula can

Version 2.2.2 built from sources on a Sun T2000,
with "./configure --with-mysql=/iserver/mysql"
Mysql is running on a Sun v40 / Windows 2003 , LAN 1Gb.
The mysql client library I compiled against on the T2000 are the thread safe
ones.
And during build it said that batch inserts were enabled.

The problem is that the customer can no more handle all of the backup during
the night.
For unknown reason, Bacula seems to go very fast only just after scratching and
