This is a strictly local disk backup, right?  Why would it take anywhere near that long?  Is it the time to pull all the items from the server which I presume is not local?  If so would it be faster for step 1 to simply make a mapping between inventory names and server side ids and send it to the server to complete?   Just thinking out loud and probably with erroneous assumptions to boot.  :)
