I want to coin that it might in the middle, on the network.

I don't known the setup of the original poster, but let me guess.

The 17000 KB/s is from the fileserver and goes straight to a client.

The  5884 KB/s has to travel a way like
- the fileserver
- the computer where it is ncpmounted
- the computer where the Bacula storage deamon is
- and maybe to some network attached storage

A longer network (de)tour has it's throughput price ...
