Generally node B would take up more space, although a straight linear
comparison cannot be made as file aggregation will skew the result.

File aggregation is controlled via the TXNGROUPMAX and TXNBYTELIMIT
parameters, TXNGROUPMAX can be set as a serverwide value, or overridden
for particular clients with the txngroupmax parameter of 'register node'
