sparsebundle backup very slow


Recommended Posts

Made a block copy of a disk drive to a sparsebundle image. mounted the sparsebundle image and tried to back up its contents via retrospect to a file set located on a firewire drive. i back up using file sets to this firewire drive all the time.

 

the backup was hideously slow--maybe 100 to 1000 times slower than normal. i canceled it.

 

OSX 10.5.2 on a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz, 4 GB of RAM. retrospect 6.1.138, driver 6.1.14.101.

 

the sparsebundle image had about 20GB of data in it.
