All metadata (the data that goes into the bacula catalog) still flows 
between your FD and DIR. Putting the SD local removes most of the 
traffic, but not all. Depending on the backup speed and the amount of 
files you backup the metadata could still be a significant amount of 
data, maybe enough to fill 1Mbps.
