How many network hops between source and destination?  "traceroute" will 
provide some idea.

If this is poor bandwidth utilization due to overhead in a long network 
route, parallelizing could work well.

If the backup server is on the same local network, or only a few hops 
away, something else needs probably to be fixed.
