Your backup setup
Data
3-5% is typical for VMs; busy databases and file servers run higher.
Retention & efficiency
GFS default is roughly 7 daily + 4 weekly + 12 monthly.
Network
Measure real throughput, not the rated line speed.
Restore is often slower than backup - different path, cloud egress, media reads.

Prove it with a live restore.
Estimates are planning tools. Hallatec runs a real restore test and designs a backup & DR architecture that meets your actual RTO/RPO.
Planning estimate; real throughput and dedup vary. Validate with a live restore test - a calculated recovery is not a proven one.
