We're experiencing very high page faults/s when restoring through Veeam Cloud Connect.
Memory usage does rise, but not significantly, considering this machine has 192GB RAM.
The storage volume is HDD hard raid.
The throughput is 800-900Mbps as this is happening.
It would be cool if we got to know why. Is Veeam "file mapping"[1](mmap counterpart on Windows) the entire file and relying on kernel pagefaults to read it? Then this behaviour should be documented so that we know this is intended.
