The "Amount of backup files, in kilobytes, sent by the client to the server"
does include client retries (at least at 4.2.0 level).  We've just
experienced this when a node that retries a huge file shows sending 19 GB
instead of the normal 8 GB.

Field 17 from the accounting record below shows this (19,350,787).
