Really? My experience is that the speed of /dev/random and /dev/urandom

Note that depending on the platform where you try,
/dev/urandom as a source might be faster than /dev/random.
("/dev/random blocks until more entropy can be obtained" says
e.g. the Solaris man p
As a reminder, the director/sd/database system is supporting 20
concurrent jobs, 10 to tape and 10 to raid. It's a 2-cpu hp dl380 G4,
3.4GHz cpus and 3.5Gb ram.

Both what? What backup speeds are you getting? Thanks,John

I don't think the medium or the connection are the holdup. My network
throughput at that time varies around 750 mbps.

The tape drive speed is not the bottleneck, then.

What speeds _are_ you seeing?
Is the data compressable?

What sort of backup speed should I expect when using Bacula with an
LTO3 library?
I'm seeing nothing like the advertised 60-80MB/s.
