When it HSM finishes a recall, it checks the que in order for any recall on the same tape. When it reaches the end of the que, it unmounts the tape, and starts recalling the first waiting dataset on the que. Haven't done as massive a quantity as 10,000 though.
No sorting of any kind, just checking the que DSN against the list on the mounted tape.
