Windows VSS long backup?

Hello,

I've noticed that all of my Windows VSS plug-in backup runs on average 30 minutes whearas my Windows File System backups only takes a 3-6 minutes on average.  The change rate on the VSS backup is 1.2% on average on an average 20GB VSS backup size.  Is this 30 minutes runtime normal?

I've noticed there is a long delay right after the "Done loading cache files" entry in the client logs.  I've attached some screenshots of 4 different VSS client logs.

Thanks.

Mine are the same, taking significantly longer for the VSS backup than the filesystem backup. An EMC agent will be able to explain the reasons for the difference far better than me.
