Well, with multiple concurrent jobs enabling data spooling does guarantee that jobs are written to the volume sequentially instead of being interleaved. It also avoids wasting space in the backup volumes if a long-running, low-throughput job crashes halfway (e.g. because the fd loses its connection). Neither reason is related to performance, though. andrea ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
