I use self-hosted CrashPlan for several years, it's great, but restores and thinning archives feel slow (like half a day for cca 1 TB of backups).

I had nothing but performance problems with CrashPlan, so Arq was a significant improvement. But that's setting the bar low.

Well arq 4 was slow, but now arq 5 is much faster, uploading at 10MB/s from my macbook over wifi to amazon cloud drive.
