fsarchiver taking ages to backup and restore












0














Using Linux Mint 19.1 bootable USB
Ext4 filesystem
Processor 8600k
Ram 16gb
By default fsarchiver uses zstd compression



Earlier when I used the following two commands, each command individually took maximum 5 minutes to complete.



fsarchiver -v -j6 savefs /backup/backup-fsa/backup01.fsa /dev/sda2
fsarchiver -v -j6 restfs /backup/backup-fsa/backup01.fsa id=0,dest=/dev/sda2


Now, each command takes couple of hours to complete. I noticed that mainly one core and 20% of my ram is used during the process.
