[Veritas-bu] increasing tar speed.

I do a lot of non-netbackup archiving via tar so I wont clutter up my
netbackup catalog.

Writing to my ultrium 2 drive via tar ( sun's or gnu tar ) only gets me
about 15MB/sec.

Writing to it via NBU gets me 30MB/sec with the SIZE_DATA_BUFFERS &
NUMBER_DATA_BUFFERS settings cranked up.

Is there a way to speed things up with regular tar ?

Thanks.
