C is a solid option too. Client-side deduplication reduces data size significantly.

I agree, but D could also work. Synthetic backups save time by using existing data.

Synthetic backups sound familiar, but I can't recall if they would be effective in this case since the initial full backup is already done.

I practiced a similar question about deduplication, and I think client-side deduplication could reduce the amount of data being backed up, which might fit the 4-hour window.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think multiplexing could help with throughput, but it might not be the best option for this scenario.

I remember studying about NetBackup Accelerator and how it can speed up backups by only transferring changed data. That might help here.
