It's in the Admin Ref manual, under Query SEsssions.  It's a number relative
to the observation point (the server), meaning amount of data sent to the
client.  A substantial number would represent information about a large
number of Active files, for the client to massage and use as a reference in
going through the file system(s) seeking files to back up to the server.
Windows file attributes are "richer" than those of more basic file systems
such as Unix.
