function Measure-DbaBackupThroughput {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Determines how quickly SQL Server is backing up databases to media.
 
.DESCRIPTION
Returns backup history details for some or all databases on a SQL Server.
 
Output looks like this
SqlInstance : sql2016
Database : SharePoint_Config
AvgThroughputMB : 1.07
AvgSizeMB : 24.17
AvgDuration : 00:00:01.1000000
MinThroughputMB : 0.02
MaxThroughputMB : 2.26
MinBackupDate : 8/6/2015 10:22:01 PM
MaxBackupDate : 6/19/2016 12:57:45 PM
BackupCount : 10
 
.PARAMETER SqlInstance
SqlInstance name or SMO object representing the SQL Server to connect to.
This can be a collection and receive pipeline input.
 
.PARAMETER SqlCredential
PSCredential object to connect as. If not specified, current Windows login will be used.
 
.PARAMETER Database
The database(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed.
 
.PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase
The database(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server
 
.PARAMETER Type
By default, this command measures the speed of Full backups. You can also specify Log or Differential.
 
.PARAMETER Since
Datetime object used to narrow the results to a date
 
.PARAMETER Last
Measure only the last backup
 
.PARAMETER DeviceType
Filters the backup set by this DeviceType. It takes well-known types ('Disk','Permanent Disk Device', 'Tape', 'Permanent Tape Device','Pipe','Permanent Pipe Device','Virtual Device') as well as custom integers (bring your own types)
 
.PARAMETER Silent
Replaces user friendly yellow warnings with bloody red exceptions of doom!
Use this if you want the function to throw terminating errors you want to catch.
