Question,

On 32bit Linux if you try to backup millions ~3.3 million 
hardlinks/symlinks/files, the bpbkar process will coredump/crash as it 
hits the 3 GiB limit in a 3/1 split on 32-bit Linux.

If you have an include_list that you are telling bpbackup to use to backup 
files and it is 1 MiB or 10 MiB or a gigabyte (but backing up regular 
files, not hardlinks) does anyone foresee a problem?

Who here uses large file lists, and how big have you tested with?

Thanks!

Justin.
