Spooling is when you copy data from the client(s) to a scratch disk area
on your Bacula server, then copy from there to your storage device.
It's primary purposes are:
 (1) to allow client backups to finish quickly if the backup rate is
limited by a relatively slow tape or other slow storage device;
 (2) to accumulate data from a slow client in order to prevent
"shoe-shining" of a faster tape device.
