JobBytes is the number of bytes sent from the FD (client) to the SD.  If you
are using Bacula's software compression (the compression option in the
Fileset), then that will be the size after compression.

Bacula's software compression is always done in the FD.

You can control concurrency of backups using the various "Maximum Concurrent
Jobs" options.
