big filemark

When people have expressed terrible concern for
large filemarks in their measured tapetypes
I have often said basically "don't worry".
Well I think we have a new champion filemark.
Just posted to the Faq-O-Matic list was:
define tapetye IBM_ULTRIUM-TD2 {
comment "just produced by tapetype program"
length 205572 mbytes
filemark 534180 kbytes
speed 18522 kps
}
Note, that is 534 MEGABYTES, 1/2 a GIGABYTE.
But again I say, "don't worry"!
It is only 1/4 of one percent (0.25%)
of the total tape length of 200GB.
If that measured tapetype and filemark are accurate,
it will have very little impact on amanda's calculations.
