Hi Mike, 

there are quite a few variables to consider, esp. the one named

maximum concurrent jobs = N 

has to be set in a number of locations. Most notably 

- Director
- Storage 
- Client 
- Device 

What kind of hardware are you backing up to? I'd also recommend
separating your clients into their own storages & pools once their
number exceeds, say, 20 jobs or so. 

All the best, Uwe
