Hello,

  Now in reports that Bacula sends after backup Rate is calculated simply
dividing
SD Bytes written by Elapsed time.
  But since I'm using data spooling and doing multiple backups at the same
time this
number means absolutely nothing.

  It would be much more useful to get another two numbers:
  - data spool rate. Which would indicate how fast data was received from FD
to SD spool.
  - write to tape rate. How fast data was despooled to tape drive.

  Then first number would show network and spool drive performance and
usage. Second one
will show if my hardware is capable to feed tape drive fast enough that
drive does not
have to stop tape. Such stops/starts reduces not only backup speed but also
tape life
dramatically.

  I think I remember some thoughts from Kern about implementing this ;).
Back from the end
of 2004.
