Thanks for your replies.

According to IBM, 3592 J1A tape drive has Compressed sustained data rate of
80 MB/s and Maximum interface burst transfer rate of 200 MB/s

When backing up a storage pool (source and destination pools are based on
3592 J1A drives), I noticed that transfer rate between two drives was more
than 100MB/s for a long period of time. "q proc" showed that a big file
(more than 200GB) was being transferred. Why the transfer rate exceeded
80MB?

Many thanks,
Mehdi
