Why Is CloudBerry So Slow To Backup When Encryption Is Enabled?
  • AB501UTI0N

    Hi All,

    Has anyone else noticed that when the Encryption option is turned on for a CloudBerry backup job the backup performance / speed is so slow? By slow I mean 10-15MBps instead of 80-100MBps.

    I was previously using Shadow Protect and when encryption was enabled it backed up at basically the same speed as if it were not encrypted. So I cannot understand why it is so slow and intern makes restoring a clients data so slow to the point where I am looking at going back to Shadow Protect.

    Thanks - Chris

    Encryption shouldn't add any noticeable impact to backups or restores. Can you elaborate if this is a backup, restore, or you're having the issue on both? Have you changed the default settings for Threads?

    The encryption speed issue impacts both backup & restore jobs. Also I have not changed the default thread settings.

    Support needs to have a look at the logs. Tools - Diagnostic in the agent will send them to us for review.

    Can you also clarify: Are you backing up a VM? How many CPU Cores are available for backup? How much memory on the PC? Where are you sending the backups?

    Sorry for the delay in replying! I am backing up a Virtual Machine and it has 8 virtual CPU cores assigned to it. Also the Thread count in CloudBerry is set to 4 and the backups are being sent to a Synology NAS on the same gigabit network.

    I have also sent the Diagnostic logs through to support as a couple of minutes ago.
