True Image reacts very slowly during backup, CPU usage stays high after backup
Hello,
I'm using True Image 2009 Home with Vista Ultimate, both with last build/updates.
- Unfortunately, True Image reacts very slowly during running backup, i.e. when I click "cancel", mostly the software does not even react at all. Priority is set on "normal", backup runs with AES @ 128 Bit to an external USB HDD at about 20 MB/s = 72 GB/hour.
- Moreover, after backup has finished, CPU usage stays high at around 50-60% until I finish TrueImage completely. TrueImage.exe and lsass.exe (virus-free, checked) are responsible for that usage. Why does the program still use the CPU massively after backup has finished, what does it do?
Acronis Support does not know from this, they propose only general things. Does anybody here has the same problem and probably even know how to solve this?
Kind regards
dark_rider

Dear Dmitry,
thank you for your quick answer. Has it any severe consequences for my Windows when I deactivate "Distributed Link Tracking Client"? And is this the same as lsass.exe, which runs with high actiovity during the usage of TrueImage, or is it something different?

You can safely disable Distributed Link Tracking Client Service if your computer is not in the domain. The main purposes of this service is to maintain links between NTFS files within a computer or across computers in a network domain. You can read more about this service using

lsass.exe" is the Local Security Authentication Server. It verifies the validity of user logons to your PC or server. Lsass generates the process responsible for authenticating users for the Winlogon service. This is performed by using authentication packages such as the default, Msgina.dll. If authentication is successful, Lsass generates the user's access token, which is used to launch the initial shell. Other processes that the user initiates then inherit this token.

Hello Dmitry,
unfortunately, also when I deactivated the Distributed Link Tracking Client service, lsass.exe still causes high CPU usage (even higher than TrueImage.exe etc.) during backup.
