I noticed that gpg compresses backups, and since it can only use one thread it’s very slow. It compresses even tar backups which is really a pain when I just want a quick backup before a major update. I found that there is an option that can be passed to gpg to disable compression or at least set the desired level of compression. These are --compression-algo none and -z 0 respectively.
Can these be added to virtualmin so gpg compression is either optional via toggle switch or tunable through compression levels?
I know this sounds like a first world problem but unencrypted tar backup for all of our virtual servers takes about 1 minute and an encrypted one takes 10, it adds up. Thank you
