Well I know when i did the tests with BackupExec.. at least locally..
they would start off high.. 2000mB/min.. by hour 4 it was down to 1000
by the end down to 385 MB/min.. with BackupExec if I did one big 300gb
file, locally, it stayed around 2000, if there was a mixture then it
went down gradually.

Of course acronis imaging worked fine locally, so it must be some
network transfer issue with the software.. I'll try ShadowProtect next
and see how it fares.
