This depends on the file size and the file extension. Photos are probably small enough that CPU load is not a factor. DVD or BluRay media files are another matter. Though at 1 mbps it might not be practical to back those up to CrashPlan Central anyway.

The 3.2 engine seems to be better on CPU than the older 3.0 engine though. My pro is uploading at about 8 mbps at the moment, and the CPU load is only 3%. I think it was much higher in early March (with the old engine). Back then I was frequently saturating one of the Pro cores. It is still taking about half the memory though.
