Would there be any benefir to increasing the value of MOVEBATCHSIZE?

My understanding is that MOVEBATCHSIZE indicates the maximum number of
"files" can be moved in a single transaction between media, while
MOVESIZETHRESH indicates the "maximum quantity" of data to move in a single
transaction.

With your MOVESIZETHRESH set to 500, it would imply that unless your files
averaged 12.5 Meg in size, you'll never be seing the benefit of the 500 M
Threshold. The ADSM Performance Tuning guide suggests uping MOVEBATCHSIZE
to 1000.
