Not tested this lately, but on NT4 we found that the time to get the info
about a file took as long as the time to back the file up happened with
file sizes of ~200 KBytes, I would imagine with faster tape drives this
will have increased in size since then. I would not expect the newer
Microsoft OSes to help as I beleive this is a function of the disk file
system.
