Just FYI I am very unconvinced of the benefit of attribute spooling, at 
least with a MySQL back-end, because the spooling implementation in 
Bacula's MySQL driver is very bad.


(It writes attributes into a table to avoid writing them into a table, 
then to unspool, it reads them all out of that table and writes them 
into the table it otherwise would have written them to in the first 
place.  Um ......   yeah.  Quite aside from the obvious performance 
implications, this huge atomic write *also* makes it incompatible with 
Galera 3 clusters.)
