3590e drives - What's your best *realistic* throughput?

[Paul Fielding]

I'm looking to know what I could *realistically* expect from a 3590e drive
during a *restore*, assuming the tape drive is the bottleneck, ie. disk is
fast enough, bus is wide enough, everything is local attached, machine is
super zippy, and restoring BIG files.

Certainly the theoretical max is something along the lines of 14 MB/s, but
I'm wondering how close people really come to that?

thanks in advance...

Paul
