A quick follow-up on this. Looking at these metrics it was pretty clear that I was shoe-shining. I have LTO-4 drives so I should be targeting 120 MB/s. I was getting on average 55 MB/s. After adding data spooling I reached 80 MB/s. Reading the tape tuning guide from Bareos I added new pools with a block size 1M and maximum file size of 50G which caused the average to end up at 120 MB/s when despooling. Very nice!
Now my biggest annoyance is that spooling and despooling is not simultaneous - but I guess if I run multiple jobs they should interleave nicely. I will have to test that on the next full run.
