I am the support engineer that is investigating this issue you have posted. I am responding to this request via the support case that this forum thread has created. From initial investigation this might be related to hardware resourcing.
The best thing to confirm would be if the network connection is not a bottleneck. If possible also confirm if the destination location is not a disk that needs to be defragged?
The other possibility to consider is the long filenames at the destination. This might cause the issue as well.
One more thing that I can suggest is that you try the same command but point the destination as a UNC location that is on the same server. For eg put the location as \\servername\diskdrivelocation. This way the network redirector will be used but will point to the local destination. This will confirm that the network port is the bottleneck.
Thanks so much for your patience and feedback in this matter. / comments

Thanks for your feedback and the enhancement request. I have put this along side two more other customers who have requested similar features.
The other two scenarios that were requested are:
Allow saving of templates in Scheduled Backup wizard
Easy migration of templates between servers
I will put your request again in the triage queue and should have an update when this is looked at by product management. The jira number for your reference is SB-3470.
I should be in a position to notify you when this is triaged and updated.

I am the support engineer that is investigating this issue you have raised. Thank you for the suggestion and the feature request. I would like to discuss this with you in a little more detail and offer some preliminary advice if possible.
The compression analyser works on the data types and then depending on the values it parses it makes an estimate of the compression it can achieve. This information is normally very accurate as the data type and size information rarely changes very quickly.
In regards to calculating time and CPU the analyser would be a little bit off the mark as there are other variables like activity on the server, type of the disk subsystem etc that make a big difference to the outcome.
For eg. The location could be network or local and this in itself will make a difference to the time calculations. Hence to err on the side of only providing realistic information we currently provide only information about how much we can compress the data.
If you feel really strongly about this feature I can create a change request and triage this with product management if that suits?
Thanks for taking the time to put this feature request in. This is a good thing either ways as other SQL Backup users will be reviewing this information and adding their thoughts as well.

If you navigate to Configuration > Alert Settings and then select the relevant database in the tree on the left hand side, you should seem a list of those alerts that apply to this database. You can then configure these alerts at this level, or diable/enable them.
I hope this addresses what you are seeking to achieve?

The process of moving licenses from one server/desktop to another will involved deactivating the license from the existing system, installing the product on the new system and then reactivating the license using the serial number again. You will need internet access if you want to do this seamlessly. We do offer a manual activation option to do this from another computer. For your convenience I have copied some knowledge base articles that show how to license systems. This article can be accessed from our knowledge base at: http://www.red-gate.com/SupportCenter/G ... _resources
In here you will find a link called ' moving a serial number from one computer to another'.
SQL Monitor installation information is available at: http://www.red-gate.com/supportcenter/C ... tion_Guide
I hope this helps answer your questions. / comments
