Read my prior posts about it in this thread. It's fine for backup, the problem
is when you try to remove old snapshots, or perform a restore, or otherwise
manipulate the backup trees.
By comparison with a CPU-intensive program. It doesn't matter how fast your
CPU is, if your program is doing a busy-wait. It will consume 100% of whatever
CPU you throw at it. Program design is important.
