I think the calculation is correct (total column 4 / total column 9 is 
14.3MB/s).

But you're observation of taping at >100MB/sec is also correct :)

Note your client "gertrude".  That one DLE is throwing the average to 
hell<-<-ck.
Of your total data taped, 803,077MB, gertrude is only contributing 484MB.
However her time to tape is 809 minutes out of 936 minutes total.  So her
0.5% of the data taped takes 86.4% of the time to tape.

Leaving gertrude out of the calculation I calculate the others tape at 
105.3MB/s.

Why is gertrude so slow?
