Hi Wolfgang,

first thanks for your reply!

bacula-sd.conf

    Minimum block size = 1999999
    Maximum block size = 1999999

This is the only Value that we have changed. With lower Values our 
Backup was verry slow. We have LTO4 Tapes. Whats your Values?

here is our stinit.def (only 1 line without comment header):

{buffer-writes read-ahead async-writes}

We made no changes to this File.

regards

Tobias
