Each night I have a job which restores a database, this database is roughly the same size (around 50gb). But over the last two weeks which I have been monitoring it the run duration has varied from 3 hrs 22 minutes to 7 hrs 25 minutes. None of the steps have failed. Please help

After ruling out other jobs or processes running on the server, check to see if there are any bad disks on the server. I ran into a similar problem and found out one of the disks in the array had failed. Everything was better after it was replaced.

Agreed. Something has either changed, failed or a competing process is running. I do similar nightly and my systems variance is under five minutes for the most part.

I noticed a similar restore experience. My restore could vary by a factor of 3x. It was caused by the load on the tape silo and the load on the backup network. It was quite random, depending on what else was happening.
