Good or bad I've the habit to use a pool with 7 volumes inside (one for each 
weekdays) as place and catalog size doesn't matter
 too much.

There's also one copy per month/week going offsite.

If you transfer offsite the bacula.sql don't forget to gzip or bzip it before. 
It normally be compressed at a 90%.
