I have an approx 1 TB backup set on box.com. This is really a great feature of restic in many ways.
I notice that accessing by ‘restic mount’, ‘restic snapshots’ or ‘restic clean’ takes a modest amount of time but ‘restic prune’ takes many days (it was 3+ and counting but the tropical storm took out my connection so back to the beginning).
Anyway, is this expected?
I did see the GDrive question earlier but I think that something different is going on here.
Is there some tuning to make this faster for the rclone case. Any thoughts?
There are severe speed issues in current restic releases and some big improvements under development, see
Either try these proposed changes (with care!) or please be a bit patient.
The maintainers do a great job here and I agree that especially with pruning enhancements quality goes over development speed.
Wow. Thanks for all your hard work and contributions!
I happy to wait; the backup itself checks fine, and I only wanted to clean up some unreferenced packs. It’s nice to see that this issue is being addressed.
