    1) Is your BE 15 on a physical machine or in a VM?  If it is the latter, then accessing a real tape drive is not supported.

    2) It could be the staging from tape to disk that is slowing things down.  How big is the VM?  Have you tried duplicating the tape backup set to disk and then restoring from the disk backup set?
