      We have a fairly large Confluence install. The backup files are 250Mb.. Backups take around 25-30 mins at the moment.. During that time Confluence is nearly impossible to use. The CPU is locked on 100 percent.. Is there someway to lower the priority of the backup thread?

            Hi Damon,

            The Confluence backup facility is not designed to backup large volumes of data efficiently. For larger Confluence instances we recommend that automatic Confluence backups be disabled and that backups are performed by:

            a) A database backup using the tools provided with your database
            b) Backing up the confluence home directory

            This process is much quicker and causes less interruption to the running Confluence service
