I see, I think then that's why there's a separate disk cache option

So if have a very large DLE and I use disk for cache, it will spool
chunks to disk and starting streaming to tape before the whole DLE is
written to disk? I want to avoid memory cache since I'd end up with
lots of smaller parts (~14GB on my system).
But how do I specify to use disk-cache'ing for level 0, but holding
disk for >= level 1 dumps?
You can't, if the estimate is smaller than the holding disk, amanda will
do the dump to holding disk, if the estimate is larger than the holding
disk, amanda will dump it directly to tape using disk-cache'ing.
