Our Spectra T950 has a drive performance monitor. For LTO drives I think
anything below the slowest stream rate (40MB/s for LTO3) is going to be
shoe-shining to some extent. If your library doesn't have a performance
monitor, you might be able to estimate the data transfer on the server
with something like iostat.
