That's maybe a stupid question, but I really wonder...

Using Disk Spooling prior to write data to tape, heads in a sequential 
write order:
a) write data from backup client to disk spool directory
b) write data from spool directory to tape

Why are those tasks done sequentially?

Let's say if the spool is reaching a waterlevel mark, the storage daemon 
will start to write the spool data to tape _and_ at the same time the 
backup client still sends data to the spool directory. Isn't that possible?

Cheerz,
