Backup Efficiency Issue

Post by chansonsky »

Operating System Version: Windows Server 2012 R2
Software Version: Cobian Reflector 2.3.12

I use Cobian Reflector for incremental backup and find the efficiency is very slow. During the process of running, I found that the software creates many empty folders, with a general situation as follows:
Time, 10:07 (45 files, 110,417 folders) ,
Time, 10:08 (45 files, 116,691 folders) ,
Time, 10:11 (45 files, 125,077 folders) ,
Time, 10:36 (45 files, 212,988 folders) ,
Time, 10:41 (49 files, 219,974 folders) ,
Time, 10:56 (51 files, 263,375 folders),
Time, 13:45 (280 folders, 287 folders) ,
Backup completed.

I don't know if creating so many folders midway is the correct process, but it will consume a lot of time.

The folders may be deleted at the end (if ignore empty folders is checked). This is not the default, though.

The only way this could happen if is the "Delete source" or "Delete source content" is selected.
