I'm interested in this also. Perhaps a Minimum Spool Size directive so that the spool reaches a critical size to avoid shoe shining tapes, and once that size is reached the storage daemon starts de-spooling from the beginning of the spool file to the tape while still writing data from the file daemon to the end of the spool file. Is this possible with the current code? If not, can I request it for a future feature? :)
