We're seeing some odd sizes reported for incremental backups. A 'status
jobs' shows, firstly, for a full backup:

   338  Full   19,796,396    2.916 T  OK       06-Apr-09 04:07 Client1

That looks right: nearly 20 million files and nearly 3Tb.

Now an incremental:

   340  Incr      1,085    1.313 T  OK       07-Apr-09 13:10 Client1

Just over a thousand files (believable) but 1.3Tb of data (not
believable). That would suggest an average file size of over a gigabyte
whereas the full back suggests an average file size of around 150K, which
is much more believable. Quite apart from anything else, it's unlikely
that 1.3Tb would even fit on an AIT5 tape.

Whilst the backups seem to run successfully, it would be good to fix this
erroneous reporting. Any suggestions for doing so would be appreciated.
