we use bacula in the same way, but with version 2.4.3, so we only use
migration instead of copy job.
Maybe you have the same problem as we have. Performance looks ok, if i
use tools other then bacula to test it.
We assume, that the seek process on disk based volumes not really works.

As you can see, bacula needs 12 minutes to migrate 37MB. Thats becuase
is does not "jump" to the correct file position in the disk volume. It
reads the entire volume from the begining to the end if the job was the
last on it. You can see this with stat sd. Bacula reads the volume but
does not write to the tape the most time.
We assume its a configuration problem but do not find any.
