How I sped up my Files/Folders backups

I have two machines configured almost identically. I discovered that on my machine, my Files/Folders backups were taking much longer than on my wife's machine, even though hers is older and uses SATA SSDs whereas I use NVMe PCIe SSDs.
I discovered the culprit to be Windows Security. After I excluded the backup process, the full backup time dropped from about 38 minutes to about 23 minutes for a 90GB backup file.The process to exclude in Windows Security is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Acronis\TrueImageHome\TrueImageHomeService.exe
(Note: this is for ATI 2019)
For some reason, it was already excluded on my wife's PC, but not on mine. I don't recall excluding it. I am wondering if it may be that it was set during the program installation. I recently updated her machine from ATI 2018 to ATI 2019. My PC was already running ATI 2019 when I reverted to Windows Security.
