TSM Backup Issue

Anyone had an issue where their backups were extremely slow and their Interrupts were huge? I've got 400GB DB's taking 40hrs to backup over a 4 port Ether-channel connection. No errors in my AIX errpt and the network guys are telling me they don't think it's them. Any suggestions on what to look at are appreciated.  Below is an example when I run entstat.
