    Okay, so 50 minutes to migrate the 250 Mb file.  How many items were in that? Remember that in production you will heve multiple files being worked on in parallel, so the ~300 Mb / hour will be much higher.

     

    A good starting point to figure out performance issues is the Performance Guide.  Have a search for that.

    The best bet is to step back a little bit and do a base line.

     

    Get the PST file on the server, and ingest it into a temporary archive using the Wizard in the VAC.

    How long does that take?

     

    How long does the client take to upload the PST file? You can work that out from the client log file.
