Does anyone know why dump/restor are so SLOW ??  Any way to speed
them up a bit??  It can really be painful doing full backups
and a restor (we've had several disk problems recently).
I am running 4.1 on a 780 and have a TU77 tape (125 ips) and
don't feel I'm fully utilizing its speed capabilities.

Please respond by mail, and as usual, thanks in advance.
