Hye Guys

I'm trying to restore a database from backup but its very slow. It is taking about 2 hours to restore 80 GB database.

I tried to restore the same on VM and it took only 10 minutes to restore. However on my local system its taking too much time


i'm using SQL SERVER 2008 R2, Windows 7 64 bit

Any thoughts ?

Are you retoring the backup on the existing database or a new database?

What does this return in case you are retoring on the existing database?
select log_reuse_wait_desc from sys.databases where name='YourDBName'


PBUH

Where is your backup file located on the locally or over the network, this is the usual problem I have and its just down to network usage at the particular time.
