I would definite exclude all Netbackup processes from Mcafee both on disk and in-memory scan.
I have seen a Oracle restore going havoc for a day or two until we realized Mcafee was blocking access. i have also seen netbackup disk storage units going up/down completely random because of Mcafee.
Excluding a process from Mcafee does not necessary mean it will make Netbackup run faster, but it assures Netbackup run as intended.
