Is that "native" or "compressable" speed? LTO3 are 400Gb native or 800Gb "compressed" - where marketing assumes 2:1 compression ratios. Have you tried testing using btape's 'fill' command? If you're spooling, you shoudl expect throughputs to be considerably slower than non-spooling for streaming data as there's double handling of the files.
