CrashPlan performance
Just got up and running with CrashPlan on my PRO 6, and was wondering what upload speeds people are seeing. So far I am generally seeing between 5 and 12 mbps (much slower than my internet uplink)....

What backup speeds are you actually getting?

Once the inital files are copied you can turn the deduplication back up to normal here is one write up - http://www.technazgul.com/2011/01/crashplan-backup-configurationspeed.html...
I haven't seen any consistent improvement when I adjust the settings, making me wonder if the Crashplan servers/bandwidth are limiting the connection speed. Though the CPU usage shows that java grabs a full core on the Pro 6 (no matter what the crashplan settings are).
