On my busiest server, my backups use to take almost 8 hours. Now with Pigz they are done in a little under 4. I haven't even tried the new backup system but I'm guessing due to the fact the FTP action is separate they will be done even quicker!

If anyone hasn't tried pigz, I highly recommend it!

Have you tried any restores? We've had a few issues previously during restores on another project... but it is ALOT faster.

Remember to open a support ticket or bug report for any issues you encounter with restores that you feel may be a result of a flaw in the software. This will allow us to investigate and open an internal case with development if necessary.

Thank you.
