So the problem appears to be with the scanner/recover tool. In the
networker administrator window, it reports that 5.7GB will be
restored.  This amount recovered increments and then stops.  The OS file
continues to grow at this time.  The networker admin window eventually
starts incrementing again (ie 600MB of 5767MB). When it completes, the
file is 9GB but networker thinks it has recovered 5.7GB.

I have re-imported the media & client several times but the result is
consistent. Any idea??

Are any of the recovered files comprehensively "sparse"?  If so, perhaps
the recover is busy writing nulls into the space formerly not used.
